Also, you should check to make sure that you have ssh configured
properly to use public/private key pairs, then use a combination of
ssh-agent and ssh-add as described in their manual pages if you wish
to use a passphrase on your private-key, which would probably be a
good idea.

In case this is all new to you, I would suggest reading the
documentation for openssh, particularly the requirements for
permissions on your home directory and ~/.ssh directory and the files
that should reside there. Another command that could be of use in this
regard is ssh-keygen to generate an rsa or dsa keypair in the first
place.

Once you can successfully ssh without having to type in a passphrase,
you should be able to do multiprocessor runs.

If you are using the mpich2 implementation, you may need to run
mpdboot before this as well, but that's getting too far ahead at the
moment.
