I am using the Parallel Computing Toolbox 4.1 (R2009a) on a machine that can not communicate with the cluster nodes directly. Both the client machine and the cluster nodes can communicate with the head node that is running a scheduler.
When I perform a "Configuration Validation" by selecting:
Parallel > Manage Configurations > Start Validation
all steps pass until the 'matlabpool' test, which fails:
