I'm using an old versions (6.3) of LAM/MPI. In this version of LAM,
lamboot uses rsh to run hboot which forks lam demon (lamd). The problem
we are running in to is that rsh is not allowed (for security reasons)
on the cluster of machines connected to LSF. Ssh also causes problems
because it prompts you for the password. I know there's a way to setup
ssh so it doesn't prompt for a password, but it is not a viable option.
So, is there a way to fork lam demon without going through lamboot?
I have not kept up with new features of latest release but does the new
version of LAM/MPI still require rsh/ssh to fork lam demon?
Thank You,
