joseph,
 
i had the same thought as donginn -- having "madrid.ucmerced.edu" on both the 
127.0.0.1 line *AND* the 10.0.0.2 line may well be confusing the system.  as a 
general rule, i've taken to having the first line of the hosts file be 
"127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost" and that's it, and have the 
hostname on the line with the reachable IP addr.
 
as for the ssh problems specifically, a verbose trace of the ssh connection may 
yield some more specific information than our best guess at the hosts file 
configuration -- try to add a "-v" to the ssh command and see where it's 
stalling out.    
 
also, how do you connect to this box from "outside?"  from this hosts file, it 
looks like the head node has a 10. addr that it uses to talk to the cluster 
nodes, but no separate "public" facing address, as is customarily the case with 
clusters (a public facing addr on the head node, and a private network that the 
head node and all the compute nodes are on, so the compute nodes are not 
reachable directly from anywhere except inside the cluster).

Hi Joseph,

I don't know how to avoid the OSCAR sanity checking of network 
configuration(especially /etc/hosts) because OSCAR does not like to have any 
actual hostname rather than localhost.localdomain.

http://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/trac/oscar/wiki/InstallGuideNetwork#NIC

This is from the OSCAR install guide.

Anyway, I am wondering if the 127.0.0.1 line caused the problem on your test. I 
am not really sure though.

Regards,

- DongInn
