I am trying to run PVM3.3.3 on a cluster of Suns, SGI's, and RS6K's.  
They are configured so that my directory is visible to each using NIS.  
They share a password file and a netgroup file.  If I use the pvm console,
I keep getting the message 'Can't start pvmd' for any machine I try to add.
If I use a hostfile and specify dx=/pvm/lib/pvmd, where the daemon lives,
I can get the RS6K's to fire from the Sun, but can't get another Sun or
SGI to fire.  I am using ksh, as well.

Can anyone suggest something here?
