[Paraview] Client/server on SGI

Hi John,

You are only required to use the .pvx file if you are running 
ParaView in a CAVE or if you are running in client / data server / 
render server mode.  To start the client on the same machine as your 
pvserver, just open a new shell, and run the pvclient executable.  If 
it's all on the same machine, you shouldn't even need to specify the 
server host to the client.  So, you should do the following.

mpirun -np 10 pvserver
pvclient

Are there specific command-line options you're trying to use?  Do you 
have other specific questions about starting ParaView?
