    Please holler if it's not clear in the documentation.

    You can debug connectivity before trying any lustre stuff...
    
    1. Get LNET running on relevent nodes: modprobe lnet && lctl net up 
    2. lctl ping <NID>

Yes.  I'm not quite at the point of being able to do that, but getting closer.
    
    I think "my-server" really means "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" because the network 
type
    of a NID defaults to "tcp" and the network number defaults to "0".

Ah, right, I forgot about that.  
    
    If the new network type your LND implements is "sc", then you should be 
able to
    say...
    
    # mount -t lustre [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/lustrefs /mnt/internal-lustre
    
    Note that all the string/NID conversion stuff is in
    
    <lustre>/lnet/libcfs/nidstrings.c
    
Yup, I remember that now.  We actually went over all that a while back, but
I'd forgotten that tidbit in all the mayhem.

Thanks!
