Unfortunately our Windows developer/maintainer is out for a little while (he's getting married); he pretty much did the Windows stuff by himself, so none of the rest of us know much about it. :( inet_pton is a standard function call relating to IP addresses that we use in the internals of OMPI; I'm not sure why it wouldn't be found on Windows XP (Shiqing did cite that the OMPI Windows port should work on Windows XP). This post seems to imply that inet_ntop is only available on Vista and above: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vcgeneral/thread/e40465f2-41b7-4243-ad33-15ae9366f4e6/ So perhaps Shiqing needs to put in some kind of portability workaround for OMPI, and the current binaries won't actually work for XP...? I can't say that for sure because I really know very little about Windows; we'll unfortunately have to wait until he returns to get a definitive answer. :-( -- Jeff Squyres jsquy...@cisco.com For corporate legal information go to: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/legal/cri/
