Dear ParaView developers,

I downloaded 
paraview.app-3.4.0-Leopard-x86.dmg<http://www.paraview.org/files/v3.4/paraview.app-3.4.0-Leopard-x86.dmg>from
the download page, which according to the download page are built
using
the OpenMPI that is bundled with MacOS Leopard, and I want to run it in
distributed stand-alone mode (as described in section 12.2 of the ParaView
Guide) on my 8-core Mac Pro running Leopard (10.5.7).

>From the command line, I tried using mpirun -np 8 on the paraview executable
(paraview.app/Contents/MacOS/paraview), but this didn't work: it merely
launched paraview 8 times, with 8 copies of the UI window, rather than
launching a single client and 7 other server processes as documented.

Can anyone verify that the 3.4.0 Leopard download is indeed compiled with
OpenMPI, and give me any pointers on how to run it on multiple cores in
distributed standalone mode?

Any suggestions or pointers to more information would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Karen Lee
