Is there a firewall on sushi? Run iptables -L -n on it, it seems like
a firewall is blocking the connection.

If you don't have an explicit need for a firewall on sushi I'd suggest
ensuring that iptables is not running /etc/init.d/iptables stop

And verify the default settings of the firewall just incase it leaves them
in a reject state with the iptables -L -n command above, e.g.

# iptables -L -n
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination
