R help - Feb 2009 - R communication

Dear all,
Imagine that you have a small LAN with two computers. I would like to run R on
both, and possible to run computations from one computer to the other one. TCP
IP protocole would be preferable. Which package would you use for that? I would
be very glad if you could also provide me with some lines of code, e.g., create
a matrix X in computer 1, transfer its value to the second computer, make some
calculation, and get the value back.
Thanks for your help,
David

This could depend somewhat on which OS you have on the computers as to which
packages will work or work best for you.  A couple of packages to look at
include, Rmpi, nws, and snow (no relation), and the other packages in the
suggests field for snow.
