Yeap, both boxes have two NICs.  eth0 is public, and eth1 is private 
(192.168.2.x).  I tried adding the route, and that didn't fix it.  I've 
also tried disabling the private NIC before and running with one public 
NIC, and that didn't fix it either.  One other interesting thing I 
noticed...when I run cman_tool join on nodeA, netstat shows ccsd trying 
to do this:
