Probably something is not right on the networking setup on the two machines.
To debug the problem, you can use the mpdcheck utility as described in the
installation guide.

Subject: [MPICH] Failed to ping mpd on client


I can run mpd on machine1 alone, and on machine2 alone, but I get an error
when I have mpd running on machine2 and I enter the command 'mpdboot -n 2 -f
/etc/mpd.hosts' on machine1.  The error message is 'Failed to ping mpd on
machine2.'.  I can ping machine1 from machine2, and I can ping machine2 from
machine1.  I have the machines listed in /etc/hosts (which also lists their
IP addresses and aliases) and in /etc/mpd.hosts .  I am using Red Hat
Enterprise 5 on each of the i386 machines.  Any ideas on what is causing the
error?
 
Thanks,
Lester
