Hi Pavan,

Yes, that is the output:

$ cat /etc/hosts
##
# Host Database
#
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.
##
127.0.0.1 localhost
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
::1             localhost
fe80::1%lo0 localhost

What is the output of:

$ nslookup localhost
$ nslookup mac
$ hostname

AFAICS your machine has no domainname, otherwise it would show up in the MPICH error message after "mac".
