Hi Dean,

Blocking ports with the Linux firewall and/or your network firewall (wired/Wi-Fi) would have the same effect: Slurm won't work unless you open ports as specified in https://wiki.fysik.dtu.dk/niflheim/Slurm_configuration#configure-firewall-for-slurm-daemons

The firewalls are disabled on all nodes on my cluster so I don't think it is a 
firewall issue.  It's probably our network security between the wired part of 
our network and the wireless side.  When I put the nodes back on a wired 
controller they work again.

Now when I do

srun -N2 hostname

the jobs show connection timeouts on the nodes:

That node used port 19602 and the other node was using port 12496.
When I did the srun again the jobs showed two different ports on the
nodes
(58040 and 32392).

How can I configure a network if srun is going to grab different ports
each time?

Perhaps the information about firewall setup in my Wiki page can be of use:
