PBS Communication Error: Nodes can not communicate

I successfully installed the pbs server, started the services and can view the nodes using pbsnodes command. The queue is showing in qstat -q command properly. After I submit a test job, the followings come up in my sched_log, server_log and in the mom node mom_log files:

sched_log:

How can this problem be solved? Is it due to any kind of authentication failure? In that case, should I set up ssh key authenticated logins?

Interestingly I have another server with Torque named headnode2 with ip .89.231 which is not showing any error. I did not follow any extra step to configure that one.

You may just need to configure the firewall. I'd run

# iptables-save > iptables.bak && iptables -F

on the server and on one test node, and then submit a job to that node to see if it runs.
