Well, the ethereal dumps show that poirot is sending the tcp setup SYN 
packet to sherlock, and sherlock is responding with the ACK and RST 
flags set - connection refused, basically.  They're on the same ip 
network and they both see the packets, so there's no network-based 
intermediary firewalls, both hosts are seeing traffic so there's no 
connectivity problems....my guess is one of the following:

-iptables firewall on sherlock - you can check this with iptables 
--list (I know, I know, you stopped it - still, check again)
-that the listener isn't actually binding to the external address - 
this is my current favorite theory.  If you do a netstat -an | grep 
1522, I bet you'll find that only 127.0.0.1 is bound to 1522, and I bet 
if you check the /etc/hosts file on sherlock, that its mapped to 
127.0.0.1

Let us know how that goes.

Thanks,
Matt
