No and your diagnosis was spot on.

        Oh, yes! it was definitely broken. The slave is on the
same subnet as the master so any firewalls had to be on one or
the other  and it turned out some firewall rules I had been
using for probably 6 to 8 years or so do not work with tcp
transfers. individual lookups worked because they are mostly
udp.

To be truthful, the firewall was low on the trouble-shooting
list because it had worked for so long.

        Thanks very much.
