hi, I try to run the tutorial example in two machines.
One is my local mac(IP: 192.168.1.57), the other is a docker container(ubuntu) in a linux server(server IP: 192.168.60.67). I use a vpn to visit the server from my mac.
When creating the container, I mapped its port 60000(available) to the same port of the server. I want to first create a remote parameter server process(rank0) on the container, and a local worker process(rank1) on my mac. Then the worker will send some objects to the server, through the special address and port(“192.168.60.67:60000”).

First I run the above code(tutorial.py) in the remote container to create a server process :
python tutorial.py --rank=0 --num_gpus=2 --master_addr="localhost" --master_port="60000" --world_size=2
Second I run the same code in my mac to create the worker process, with some different args:
python tutorial.py --rank=1 --num_gpus=2 --master_addr="192.168.60.67" --master_port="60000" --world_size=2
One error occurs in both nodes.
In the container:
In my mac:
I change the master_addr in first comand line to “127.0.0.1” or “192.168.60.67”, but it’s the same error.
Also I set the special environment variables, but it does not work:
# in container
export GLOO_SOCKET_IFNAME=eth0,lo
export TP_SOCKET_IFNAME=eth0,lo
# in mac
export GLOO_SOCKET_IFNAME=en0,lo
export TP_SOCKET_IFNAME=en0,lo
Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.
