It means that OMPI is going to first look for ssh, and if it doesn't
find it, it will use rsh.

Err... I don't know. It depends on what is set in your Torque job
files and how it is set.
Normally, Torque jobs copy the environment from where you invoked
qsub. So if you have PATH / LD_LIBRARY_PATH set properly in the
shell where you invoke qsub, it should automatically propagate out to
where your script runs.

According to the FAQ entry that I cited to you, you need to set the
PATH / LD_LIBRARY_PATH in .bashrc, not .bash_profile.

If you're not setting the PATH / LD_LIBRARY_PATH in your .bashrc,
this is to be expected.

Note that you listed "node07" twice. Hence, mpirun thought that the
2nd "node07" was your executable name, resulting in the predictable
error:

Because there is no executable named "node07".
