Sorry for the delay in replying. It is probably much easier to NFS share the installation directory so that the exact same installation directory is available on all nodes. For example, if you installed OMPI into /opt/openmpi-1.4.2, then make /opt/openmpi-1.4.2 available on all nodes (even if they're mounted network shares).
Can you try that?
