It seems there is a bug in snow or the samle code, It seems snow treats every entry in the sep list as a seperate worker

I think you should use something like:
cl <- makeCluster(lapply(1:2, function(i) winOptions), type =
"SOCK", manual=TRUE)
To allow options to be passed in with the host names, you need to
specify a list of lists. Using "c(rep(winOptions, 2))" concatenates winOptions
to itself which makes snow think that you're passing in a simple lists of
hostnames.
