Hi,

I have tried to run a master slave system with xpvm and have the
following problem:

I spawned the master under xpvm's task  menu.  Xpvm found the 
master in $PVM_ROOT/bin/$PVM_ARCH and then ran it. Unfortunately it
runs it in my home directory so that any output and input files are
in my home directory too!

Has anyone been able to spawn a master from xpvm such that it will
run in an alternate directory than $HOME ?
