Subject: RE: Help Compiling John on ARM w/ MPI & CUDA

I'll be running some tests tonight with NFS which I agree is the ideal protocol. However, I ran into some issues with: NFS is not supported by the kernel.

I am presently seeking a solution to this.

Thanks for the clarification magnum.

The requirement is that all nodes must use the same directory. Not an
identical copy, not a periodically synced one, but the *one same
directory*. I have always used NFS for this but any other network file
system should work fine as long as it supports file locking using
flock() properly.
