[ofw] Setting up Infiniband over WinXp- Help Needed

[Ashwath Narasimhan]

Hi Fab,

             I restarted opensm on the other node. I ran both opensm and
ibdiagnet on the other node (not on the node where opensm is running). The
logs are similar to the one I attached in my previous mail. (Computer 1
:-192.168.0.1 logs in my previous mail). I have disabled firewall settings
on both nodes.  However, I still cannot get it to work. I cannot access the
shared folder of each node from the other.  Is there something else I can
try?

p.s. There is a typo in my previous mail. I had opensm running on computer 2
and not computer 1.

regards,
Ashwath
