It also works with en0:

lcebaman@mac~/$  mpiexec -iface en0 -n 4 ./hello
Hello world from process 0 of 4
Hello world from process 3 of 4
Hello world from process 1 of 4
Hello world from process 2 of 4

And that is what my ifconfig says:

Hi Reuti,

I have done what you suggested and it WORKS with the wireless off

lcebaman@mac~/$  mpiexec -iface lo0 -n 4 ./hello
Hello world from process 0 of 4
Hello world from process 3 of 4
Hello world from process 1 of 4
Hello world from process 2 of 4

What is the problem here then?

Cheers,
Luis

I have also noticed that working without any internet connection does not work either.

Just for curiosity:

$ mpiexec -iface lo0 -n 4 ./foo

Hi there,

I’ve got more news. The last IP that I showed in my last email it turns out that works OKAY, however now that I am back to the office and working on the wireless, it does not work. And that is the result of nslookup:

lcebaman@mac~/Projects/SPRINT$ nslookup localhost
Server: 129.215.205.191
Address: 129.215.205.191#53

Name: localhost.ed.ac.uk
Address: 127.0.0.1

lcebaman@mac~/Projects/SPRINT$ nslookup mac
Server: 129.215.205.191
Address: 129.215.205.191#53

** server can't find mac: NXDOMAIN

Any thoughts?

Cheers,
Luis

Here it is the output of those commands:

lcebaman@mac~/$ nslookup localhost
Server: 192.168.1.1
Address: 192.168.1.1#53

Name: localhost
Address: 127.0.0.1

lcebaman@mac~/$ nslookup mac
Server: 192.168.1.1
Address: 192.168.1.1#53

Name: mac
Address: 192.168.1.127

Is this a fixed address you get everytime? You could add it to /etc/hosts.

Interesting that MPICH throws an error about resolving "mac", although DNS is working.

lcebaman@mac~/$ hostname
mac

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".
