[Wien] Problems with self-compiled lapw2

The first item you cite had a  .machines file like:
1:localhost
1:localhost
1:localhost
1:localhost
granularity:1

Most likely this does not work. You should substitute "localhost" by the 
actual name of your system.
k-point parallelization is done by ss calls.
Test it by:     ssh localhost "cd $PWD;lapw1 lapw1_1.def"
Does it work ? Do you need a password,... ??

2nd item you mentioned concerns lapw2: for a parallel lapw2 the "direct 
calling" would need another parameter like:

lapw2 lapw2_1.def 1
