Also, make sure that your host files are setup properly. Otherwise, if left to the default redhat config, your cluster nodes are binding to localhost and will never see eachother. I know it's very basic, but it's easy to overlook.

After you created the initial cluster configuration, did you scp (or otherwise transfer) the /etc/cluster/cluster.conf file to all machines? Are there any iptables firewalls that are prohibiting cluster members from talking to one another?
