hi guys

I have the same error. Anybody found a solution?

My connection with the ros master is successful. I can list the nodes and topics. However, the echoing gives me the 'Failed to create a subscriber error'.

The node that is publishing the topic I am trying to echo is running on a third computer (i.e. not the master and not my remote computer running matlab). This third computer has a hostname COMPUTER1. When I rosnode info the node that publishes the topic I want to monitor, it tells me the URI is [http://COMPUTER1:33117/]. The problem seems to be that COMPUTER1 is not recognized as an host or something. I already added COMPUTER1 and its IP address to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc. I am able to ping COMPUTER1 from a terminal.

Anybody has any idea what's going on here? Thank you Martine
