Thanks for following up on this. I will definitely add it to the notes.

Yep, it was the firewall. I disabled the firewall and now it works
without having to set DXHOST to localhost.
This could very well be the case. I will make a note on this in the FAQ.
David
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.
