[Ocfs2-users] one node rejects connection from new node

[Carl J. Benson]

Hello.

I have three systems that share an ocfs2 filesystem, and I'm
trying to add a fourth system.

These are all openSUSE 11.1, x86_64, kernel 2.6.27.7-9-default.
All have RPMs ocfs2-tools-1.4.1-6.9 and ocfs2console-1.4.1-6.9

cluster.conf looks like this:
node:
        ip_port = 7777
        ip_address = 140.107.170.116
        number = 0
        name = merlot1
        cluster = ocfs2

node:
        ip_port = 7777
        ip_address = 140.107.158.54
        number = 1
        name = merlot2
        cluster = ocfs2

node:
        ip_port = 7777
        ip_address = 140.107.158.82
        number = 2
        name = wilson1
        cluster = ocfs2

node:
        ip_port = 7778
        ip_address = 140.107.170.108
        number = 3
        name = gladstone
        cluster = ocfs2

cluster:
        node_count = 4
        name = ocfs2

gladstone is the new node.

I edited the cluster.conf on wilson1 using ocfs2console, and
propagated it to the other systems from there.

When I try to bring my ocfs2 online with /etc/init.d/o2cb online ocfs2,
merlot1 accepts the connection from gladstone, as does merlot2.
However, wilson1 rejects it as an unknown node! For example:

Jan 30 14:11:46 wilson1 kernel: (4447,3):o2net_accept_one:1795 attempt
to connect from unknown node at 140.107.170.108:37795

Why would this happen?
