    Alessandro,

    Try the following:

    setenv FC ifc
    setenv F90 ifc
    setenv FFLAGS "-Vaxlib"
    setenv RSHCOMMAND ssh
    (if using bource like shell, change the above to: export FC=ifc etc..)

    ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mpich-1.2.5 --with-romio
    gmake ; gmake install

    This should get mpich built. Once it is installed edit /usr/local/mpich-1.2.5/bin/mpif90 and mpif77 and make
    sure "-Vaxlib" is defined in the variable "BASE_FLAGS". One thing I will point out is that you need to use ifc
    6.0 for flash, there are known problems in building flash with ifc 7.0, if you can't get access to ifc 6.0 let
    me know.

    Thanks,

    --Brad
