My guess would be that there is no match between an entry for the Master
Server in the master's bp.conf file (first "SERVER" entry) the "CLIENT_NAME"
in the master's bp.conf file, and the name resolution usually done through
/etc/hosts.
Since all other hosts are working, I would ensure that there is a
CLIENT_NAME entry which maches the first SERVER entry in the bp.conf file,
and second play with the /etc/hosts entries, and not the bp.conf SERVER
entry, since it affects the interactions with all other clients. There is a
bit of a description on this in the 3.2 sysadmin guide page 577.
If this doesn't solve it, or you're not sure, check the log entry where the
names get compared. I believe this is in the bpcd log. I hope this
helps....Gerrit
