When I click on either of these links, I get:

  Forbidden

  You don't have permission to access /~sbrandt/Fedora64.ovf on this server.

Any idea how to download them?

I fixed the permission problems for downloading the VM. Sorry.

Currently saying it will take 1 day, 15 hours to download, so I'll have to wait until I get back into the office!

Steve, I finally got a chance to do this. I started Eclipse, switched to the Parallel Runtime perspective and started the resource manager. Then I switched to the Parallel Debug perspective and reset it. Then I launched the Hello application under the debugger. It seems to work fine. I can see two processes, the variables, etc. I stepped a few times and it work.

There must be something you're doing that I'm not, but I don't know what it is.
