SUMMARY

The discussion centers on issues related to connecting networked computers for Mathematica Parallel Kernels using version MM7. Users report difficulties in enabling remote services, with one participant recalling past challenges in setting up the daemon for remote access. Manual launching of slave kernels on the host did not resolve the connectivity problem, suggesting underlying network issues, particularly with IP behavior. The consensus indicates that troubleshooting network configurations is essential for successful kernel connections.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Mathematica MM7 remote services
  • Familiarity with network configurations and IP addressing
  • Knowledge of parallel computing concepts
  • Experience with daemon processes and their management
NEXT STEPS
  • Investigate Mathematica MM7 documentation on remote kernel setup
  • Learn about network troubleshooting techniques for IP address issues
  • Explore daemon management in networked environments
  • Research best practices for launching parallel kernels in Mathematica
USEFUL FOR

Mathematica users, network administrators, and anyone involved in setting up parallel computing environments who are facing connectivity issues between networked computers.

Hey guys,

I have MM7 setup on two networked computers (can see each other fine in network neighbourhood) but when i enabe remote services on both of them, neither see the other computer. Any ideas? =(

Cheers

I did something similar several years ago. I cannot remember the details, but I do remember that I was never able to get the daemon set up to work remotely. I had to log on to each computer and manually launch the slave kernels.
 
Hmm yeah i went and launched the parallel kernels on the host manually, didnt seem to help. I have a feeling its more a network issue though as I am getting some strange IP behaviour but i don't want to mess with it until i have time to fix stuff i break along the way =)
