Yeah, I figured it was something like that. I realised my mistake just
after posting actually. I had run configure as root, hence my normal
$PATH wasn't set, nor $LD_LIBRARY_PATH as you say. You'll be pleased to

Thanks for the help anyhow.

Ahh, I see the boot_rsh_agent is a variable, so something like...

lamboot -ssi boot_rsh_agent=ssh mynodes?

Thanks again
