Not able to access Swift REST services from remote machine - openstack

Question

I have installed OpenStack Swift service on machine 1 (Centos 6) by following instructions given on http://docs.openstack.org/developer/swift/development_saio.html.
I am able to retrieve token using curl on the same environment.
curl -v -H 'X-Storage-User: test:tester' -H 'X-Storage-Pass: testing' http://machine-1IP:8099/auth/v1.0
* About to connect() to machine-1 ip port 8099 (#0)

If I try to access it from another machine (Machine 2).
I am getting host is not reachable exception. I am able to ping machine-1 from machine-2.
curl -v -H 'X-Storage-User: test:tester' -H 'X-Storage-Pass: testing' http://machine-1IP:port/auth/v1.0

Please suggest why Swift REST services are not accessible from remote machine? Did I missed out anything in configurations?

Answer 1

Host unreachable means Machine 2 can not access to Machine 1. It's not related to Openstack/Swift. Check your router settings and /etc/hosts.
