Great!  It seems to be working fine for me.  Both for interactive and for
batch jobs.  I will get the latest from sourceforge.

I have a question:  How does bjs deal with multiprocessor nodes?  I have so
far only run it on clusters of uniprocessors, but I would like to install
it on my other clusters, which have dual-cpu machines.

I am using the simple policy, since I don't ever want more processes running
on the nodes than there are processors (well, at least for now).  Can you tell
me a bit more about the filler policy?
