[daip] AIPS on nmpost cluster

[Lorant Sjouwerman]

also note that the nodes have eg nmpost045 and the AIPS dirs 
NMPOST0045, i.e. with two leading zeros before the number.

I indeed just got the SPD/PWD-file error:

#In /home/AIPS/DA00 are lots of directories names with the known host name.
#Usually these are links to real file on that host (for nfs file locking issues)
#but many seem to be local to filehost now.  These directories also need to be
#renamed (I see you did HOSTS.LIST).  Shall I do that renaming or do you want
#to?
