I think the odds of it being a firewall issue are small, but it's just odd that 
searchd is running, and yet we can't talk to it... and really, a firewall 
should not block traffic from within the server, just from outside getting in.

I guess one other thing to try is 'search', which is the command line tool that 
comes with Sphinx. You'll need to run it like this (from the contactor dir):

  search --config config/staging.sphinx.conf
 
What output does that provide?
