Thanks Ralph.
I have emailed the network admin on the firewall issue. About the PATH and LIBRARY PATH issue, is it sufficient evidence that the path are set alright if I am able to compile and run successfully on individual nodes mentioned in the machine file. Thanks, Ashwin.

The error indicates that daemons were launched on the remote machines, but failed to communicate back. Also, check that your remote PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH are being set to the right place to pickup this version of OMPI. Lots of systems deploy with default versions that may not be compatible, so if you wind up running a daemon on the remote node that comes from another installation, things won't work.
