[Beowulf] Cannot use more than two nodes on cluster

I am going to bet $0.25 that SSH or TCP/IP is configured to allow the
master to get to the nodes without a password, but not from one Compute to
the other Compute.

Test by sshing to Compute1, then from Compute1 to Compute2.  Depending on
how you built the cluster, it's also possible there is iptables running on
the compute nodes but, my money is on the ssh keys need reconfiguring.  Let
us know what you find.

Cheers!
