I am trying to set up Open MPI between a few machines on out network. Open MPI works fine locally, but I just can't get it to work on a remote node. I can ssh into the remote machine (without password) just fine, but if I try something like
mpiexec -n 4 --host remote.host hello_c
then the ssh connection just times out.
I checked several tutorials but the only configuration instructions they give is "make sure you can ssh into the remote machine without a password". I did and I still can't launch nodes on remote machines. What's the problem?
