Dear all,

When I do the following:

make PETSC_DIR=/home/kontzialis/petsc-3.1-p8 PETSC_ARCH=linux-gnu-c-debug test

I get the following:

Running test examples to verify correct installation

and I wait for hours.

I tried to run an mpi application of my own which uses petsc as follows:

mpiexec -n 8 ./hoac cylisupersonic -llf_flux -explicit -explicit_type 1

and I get the following error:

ssh: Could not resolve hostname PlusSodaL: Name or service not known

You have your hostname set to something that your DNS will not resolve. No
MPI program will run on this box, not just PETSc.

Either set your hostname to something that resolves (using 'hostname'), or
put 'PlusSodaL' in /etc/resolve.conf

Any recommendations?
