Yes, you will have to set the client host to the machine your client is 
actually on, olivegarden.

If you are launching the ssh command from the GUI, I believe you can use the 
special string %PV_CLIENT_HOST% and it will be replaced with your clients 
hostname.

Hi,
I have had a terrible time compiling paraview to use the pvsever on our 
cluster. Not have privileges made it a little harder as I had to install a 
local mesa library, cmake, qt4.

We finally compiled it and it ran on the head node and we could see the main 
screen.. After a few time of trying, it started crashing with a segmentation 
fault error.

I have compiled it as debug version.. and yet can't get any info when i run it 
through gdb.

Finally i thought i will just run the pvserver on the headnode 
(hpc4.iastate.edu <http://hpc4.iastate.edu> ) and when started it, i got the 
message waiting for client..

on my laptop , i configured a server and it was of the type client/server 
reverse...

and the port was 11111 and the command is as follows


ssh -i /home/dagarshali/.ssh/id_rsa.pub [email protected] pvserver 
--reverse-connection --server-port=11111 --client-host=localhost



here i would like to mention that the hostname of the laptop is olivegarden.. i 
am not sure if i have to leave it as localhost in the above line or replace 
that with olivegarden?



when i try to connect, i get the following error message




ERROR: In 
/home/vishwa/vishwa/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-1.6.x/paraview-3.6.1.old/Servers/Common/vtkProcessModule.cxx,
 line 708

vtkProcessModule (0x5c14f0): Server Error: Could not connect to client



and the path in the error is on the hpc4.iastate.edu <http://hpc4.iastate.edu>

Any help?
