Can you point me at the particular fix for my problem in the current
version? Advising an upgrade without being sure that it will fix the
problem is not a valid option. Which feature/patch may fix my problem?

If you are using the same gluster binaries on both, your problem is most likely related to an OS configuration issue. Have you verified that client/server daemons are running? Is fuse module loaded on the client?

I know the problem is probably OS related, this is why I am asking if
someone experienced this before on RHEL 5.2. The firewall rules look
fine. Both the client and the server are running.

The fuse module is definitely loaded on the client after fixing some
SELinux problems and there are no more SELinux audits that report
problems, so I am stuck there.

Ioannis
