First, MPI is completely unnecessary to use Xplor-NIH on a cluster: rsh
or ssh is used to connect to remote nodes. That said, I have
successfully used Python-based add-on MPI packages with MPICH 2. I
actually found it to work better than version 1.

Perhaps your admin could contact me directly?

best regards--
Charles
