As far as I can see there is nothing wrong with my host name
resolution. When DXHOST is set to localhost it works, but when it is
set to my fully qualified network address it fails. Could it be due
to the default firewalling rules that Redhat 7.2 sets up to prevent
intrusion? If it is connecting to the executor using a non-standard
port, perhaps it is getting filtered out at the firewall.

If this is the case, then you have some problem in your network
setup. Like your machine's name/IP address is not the same as in the
DNS Lookup (or hosts) file.

I figured out how to get dx to connect to dxexec without manual
intervention (ala Getting Started). Setting DXHOST to localhost
(setenv DXHOST localhost) solves the problem.
