Yes sir, you are right. I have successfully installed PCP in another node, say
compute node B, which can poll head node A. But head node A can not poll
compute node B. That means some network services in compute node B is not open.
But I can still use ssh and sftp to connect the two nodes. I am not sure what
service it is to accept PCP connection request.

Thank you very much for your help. I am really grateful.

Best regards.
