Unhappy 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 . Any ideas on what is causing the error?

Sorry, I should also add that I am using Red Hat Enterprise 5 on each of the i386 machines.

Another bit of information: I'm using mpich2 to run the mpd parallel processes.
