     I just posted a message about a mysterious problem of PVM on DEC 
Alpha a few days ago. Now I still have not resolve the problem. But once
it printed out a message that maybe a hint to solve the problem:

iao 136% master1
How many slave programs (1-32)?
3
libpvm [pid22036]: prodpvmd() connect: Connection refused


      This is a sample master-slave program supplied in the package.
after typing 3 slaves, the master is suppose to do a pvm_mytid().
But it failed and teh message was printed.

  After the failure, even the pvm daemon is having problems:

Jiao 139% pvm
libpvm [pid23366]: mksocs() connect: Invalid argument
pvmd already running.
libpvm [pid23366]: mksocs() connect: Invalid argument

libpvm [pid23366]: mksocs() connect: Invalid argument
libpvm [pid23366]: mksocs() connect: Invalid argument
libpvm [pid23366]: pvm_mytid(): Can't contact local daemon


    Does anybody have a clue to this problem? Thanks a lot.
