I'm running FailSafe 1.04. 
Platform is SuSE 7.2 Kernel 2.4.16-4GB
Hardware is 2 IBM x220 
I'm trying to configure a 2-Node Failover with no external shared Disks. I 
want to configure 3 resource. 
The /etc/hosts is identical on all nodes
IP-address, Filesystem, Apache. 
This is only a proof of concept configuration.  

When I configure the first node A as follows:

cmgr> define node nodea
cmgr> set hostname ...
....
cmgr> done
wait, wait, wait.....
cmgr> successfully defined node nodea

this is done successfully.
When I try to configure the second node B on node A in the same way it takes 
a long time and nothing happens. When I look to the database log I recognize 
that the cluster database does not synchronize. 
When I try the configuration revesly I have the same scenario.
