Hello, folks,
     In running PVM version 3.3 on a CM5 (well, actually, the front end only),
I get the following error message (before it dies):

mksocs() bind loclsock: Invalid argument

Looking at the source, I traced it to the lines:

if (bind(loclsock, (struct sockaddr*)&sin, sizeof(sin)) == -1) {
   pvmlogperror("mksocs() bind loclsock");
   return 1;
   }

This is wierd, since the same thing runs fine on the other Suns in the network.
Now, one thing that's also wierd is that the above code is in a "#ifdef
NOUNIXDOM" block.  Did I compile this thing wrong?  Or is their some quirk in
CMOST that I'm discovering?  If it matters, I'm using the OVERLOADHOST compile
switch.  Many thanks in advance.
