I need some help,
I have followed all the steps to make a cluster:
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/cluster/hpc-howto.xml?style=printable

I don't want to use SSH, I want to use RSH to access the nodes.
MPICH seems to compile to use SSH even though I have -crypt in my USE FLAGS, so I tried removing the if statement in the ebuild which said
Code:
-rsh=ssh
but it still compiles with ssh. I can tell because mpirun uses port 22 to access the nodes.
I also tried
Code:
MPICH_CONFIGURE_OPTS="-rsh=rsh" emerge mpich
but it still uses SSH to access the nodes. RSH is installed and running well on all the nodes, I have tested it.
What am I doing wrong?

Are you sure you have -crypt USE flag disabled, i.e. emerge -pv mpich shows "-crypt" ? ... I recently found myself without SSH support in mpich because I had not set USE=crypt. Unfortunately, I did not realize the addition of the "crypt" USE flag, and spent a good bit of time trying to figure out why mpich was not working with SSH.

Or perhaps you have an environment variable that is setting RSH=SSH?
Code:
env | grep -i ssh
