I am running Mac OS X.
So en0 points to the external address and en1 points to the internal
address on both machines.
Here is the internal results from duey:
en1: flags=8963<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST>
mtu 1500
inet6 fe80::21e:52ff:fef4:65%en1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5
inet 192.168.1.102 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255

lladdr 00:23:32:ff:fe:1a:20:66

supported media: autoselect <full-duplex>
Here are the internal results from huey:
en1: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet6 fe80::21e:52ff:fef3:f489%en1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5

1000baseT <full-duplex,flow-control>
I have some other applications running on these machines, that
communicate across the internal network and they work perfectly.

Are nn.internal and jt.interal special names?
no, just examples on a multihost network when your external names
could be something completely different.
What does /sbin/ifconfig say on each of the hosts?
