So I guess single node cluster is not supported then?

The system is very easy to setup.  A couple things I've found so far: 

- The aisexec can be compiled on a Fedora Core 1 system, but running it
will fail.  I think the multicast isn't enabled in the default Fedora Core 1
kernel.  It failed during the setsockopt() call with the "IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP" 
flag.  So it will be better if this fact is documented somewhere. 

- I eventaully figured out that you have to have a user/group ais 
created to run all the test cases.  Again, it will be better if this is
documented.  

I will give it a try as you suggested.  Thanks.
