HI,
I compiler lam-mpi 7.0 with "--with-rsh=ssh" to use ssh as the default. But
sometimes I would like to revert to "rsh" to boot.
If I do "export LAMRSH=rsh" , lamboot connects using rsh as expected, using
".rhosts" files on my nodes.
But if I try this:
% lamboot -v -ssi boot_rsh_agent rsh hostfile
lamboot proceeds as if ssh was still my agent (asking for pass phrases for
ex. if no ssh-agent has been loaded with my private key).
I have tried "export LAM_MPI_SSI_boot_rsh_agent=rsh", but this does not work
either, lamboot still behaving as if ssh was the agent.
Altough LAMRSH is said to be deprecated, it seems to be the only way to
select an agent different from the default. Am I wrong ?
Here is the output from "laminfo":
