Hello

I am having problems with lamboot and wondered if anyone could help.

[mtv_at_tamarind ~]$ recon
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The boot SSI rsh module found that your local host is not in the
hostfile "/usr/local/etc/lam-bhost.def".

The local host name *must* be in the list of hosts in the hostfile.
In other words, you must boot LAM from a node that will be part of the
universe.

        - If you simply forgot to put the local host in the boot
          schema file, add it and re-run The boot SSI rsh module
        - If you are trying to boot LAM from a node that will not be
          part of the universe, you must login to on of the nodes that
          will be part of the universe (i.e., one of the nodes in the
          hostfiles), and re-run The boot SSI rsh module

Although the local host name is usually the first in the list to avoid
I/O ambiguities, it can actually appear anywhere in the list.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Same message occurs for regular lamboot.

/usr/local/etc/lam-bhost.def does include localhost

My version is lam-7.1.1 compiled from source but I tried from
lam-7.1.1-2.i586.rpm and lam-6.5.4-usysv.1.i386.rpm
cleaning up properly in between and got the same message.

I am trying to set this up on a dual processor machine
running FC3 with 2.6.9-1.667smp kernel that is using dhcp
to obtain host address.

/etc/hosts has only:

127.0.0.1 tamarind localhost.localdomain localhost

thanks for any help!
