[Solved] 1.4 Beta cluster : ERROR: Ticket authentication failed

Hi,

I'm unable to join the slave node to a master. Either after upgrade or after a fresh installation. On my master node, I have :

Code:
kvmcap0:~# pveca -l
CID----IPADDRESS----ROLE-STATE--------UPTIME---LOAD----MEM---DISK
 1 : 172.17.4.20     M     S           00:39   0.00     1%     4%
 2 : 172.17.4.30     N     ERROR: Ticket authentication failed - invalid ticket 'root::root::1252946231::f1292eb0564a15169aaf30e361382247fccf718c'
On the slave node :
Code:
CID----IPADDRESS----ROLE-STATE--------UPTIME---LOAD----MEM---DISK
 1 : 172.17.4.20     M     ERROR: Ticket authentication failed - invalid ticket 'root::root::1252975325::b204ce648da2a3ff5565b1023f11bca07c47b545'

 2 : 172.17.4.30     N     S           00:17   0.00     1%     4%
On the web interface, I have this error message :
Unable to load local cluster table

How can I fix this problem ?

What might trigger this error ?
How can I check ?
Is there a log file with more details ?
Can I reproduce the error on the command line without using the pveca -l command ?

Regards,
 
FWIW, I saw these errors show up on the web interface for my slave node after I created the cluster. Logging out of the web interface for the slave and then logging back in again seemed to resolve the problem so I did not explore it any more deeply than that.

Problem Fixed :

The date was too much different on both servers. Now that I ntpdate both of them, the error is gone.

Thanks !
