Hi Joseph, AFAIK "No route to host" means it doesn't even got an ARP response. Can you retry and run "arp -an| grep 10.0.0.2" to see if it got the right MAC address? It's very strange that you can ping the headnode from the compute node. Are you sure you are running "ping nfs_oscar"? What does "arp -an| grep 10.0.0.2" says after that?
