G98/linda compilation

["Ole W. Saastad" <ole "-at-" scali.no>]

 Hi,
 I am trying to put together g98 and Linda. We have evaluation
 copies of both softwares, but not the two as a unit.
 I want to test the performance of our new ScaIP for this combination.
 Many Scali clusters could take advantage of its SCI interconnect
 through ScaIP.
 ScaIP runs very well with Linda alone, we get latency slightly less
 than the one for ethernet and a bandwidth more than three times
 that of ethernet. It might be that Linda/g98 might benefit from
 this higher bandwidth and somewhat lower latency. I have no information
 about the average package size for g98/Linda.
 How do you compile g98 for linda? I have more or less managed
 to compile g98 by changing the lines in bldg98 where you specify
 exe or linda.
 if ($dolink) then
  $makename -f $locmake $makeflag exe
  $makename -f $locmake $makeflag linda
   endif
 I had some problems with fork and wait. At present
 I run with two empty routines for wait and fork. This is not
 correct and a solution is needed.
 After I have compiled I have files called both .exe and exel, the
 latter beeing the Linda executables. How do I run g98 with these
 Linda executables ?
 Just running it a usual ( ./g98 <input file> ) does not start
 Linda, it does however run scalar the normal way.
 Some help on how to run Gaussian in combination with Linda would be very
 helpful.
