Hello, according to your description, it seems that you're having
trouble with launching mpi jobs using mpirun_rsh.  Are both of your ip
addresses reachable from each host?

I would suggest just using the hostnames in the host file as this will
work best if host resolution is working (eg. dns or /etc/hosts).  In
this case your hostfile will look like:

nodeA
nodeB


If you must use ip addresses, do not use 127.0.0.1 but replace it with
the ip address that the remote node can use to reach the launching
node.  For example:

nodeA (192.168.0.1)
nodeB (192.168.0.2)

Your hostfile should contain

192.168.0.1
192.168.0.2

and not

127.0.0.1
192.168.0.2

Hope this helps.
