Unable to run mpdboot

[Yogesh]

Hello

I have connected two nodes which have the following configuration

hosts file of the slave comp
127.0.0.1 cluster00.yogesh.com
10.3.11.23 cluster01.yogesh.com

hosts file of master
127.0.0.1 cluster01.yogesh.com
10.3.11.66 cluster00.yogesh.com

i am able to run mpd using mpd & command on the master, but when i try
to run mpdboot -n 2, so tht i can start mpd on the slave comp, it is
unable to do the handshaking.

I have configured ssh properly, and am able to root login without
password


then i tried another method, i logged into the slave comp and tried to
start mpd manually, by providing the master nodes ip and port... mpd
-h cluster01 -p 48281 &

even this doesnt work, i get error messages saying, could not enter
the ring..
dunno wht the prob is

Please try this hostfile* on both nodes
127.0.0.1 localhost
10.3.11.23 cluster01.yogesh.com
10.3.11.66 cluster00.yogesh.com

*=or similar

To find out what I mean by "similar" you really should learn the
basics of IP addressing and routing. Nowadays there is no way
around that.

if you type the command "hostname -f" on either host will it
answer with the names shown above? If not you are in trouble.

Did you configure name resolution to look first into your hosts
file and use DNS only afterwards?

If you do not really setup a DNS server for yogesh.com then
you may better use only host names without a domain part
in your hosts files.
