Correct. Or:

-----
shell$ LAM_MPI_SSI_boot_rsh_agent=ssh
shell$ export LAM_MPI_SSI_BOOT_rsh_agent
shell$ lamboot mynodes

I mention this because you can hide setting this environment variable in
some system-level shell setup file, so all users effectively get this
setting (e.g., on some Linux distros, /etc/profile.d scripts).
