Is the hostname right?

(tsdb::tsdb :cpu :jacy :file t)
initialize-cpus(): `merlot' communication error [-6].

This normally means that the hostname is wrong. Check using pvm what
hosts pvmd thinks are available. A common mistake is to use merlot
instead of merlot.domain.county or the other way round.
