It is necessary to have certain ports open for the Qube! Supervisor, Worker, and Client machines to communicate amongst themselves. You should either disable the firewall completely on the local machine, or open specific ports for Qube! to communicate via TCP /IP and UDP.
Supervisor ports
- 50001 TCP /IP and UDP inbound
 - 50002 TCP/IP TCP and UDP inbound
 
PostgreSQL on the Supervisor:
- 50055 TCP inbound
 
Worker port
- 50011 TCP /IP and UDP
 - 50012 TCP/IP and UDP
 
Setting Command line variables
Having the Qube commands available in the path from the commandline can be useful. Here is what is needed to set this up:
- Linux (~/.cshrc/ or ~/,tcshrc):
setenv QBDIR /usr/local/pfx/qubeset path = ($path $QBDIR/bin $QBDIR/sbin)
 - Linux (~/.bashrc):
export QBDIR=/usr/local/pfx/qubeexport PATH=$PATH:$QBDIR/bin:$QBDIR/sbin
 - OS X (~/.bashrc):
export QBDIR=/Applications/pfx/qubeexport PATH=$PATH:$QBDIR/bin:$QBDIR/sbin
C:\Program Files\qube\binto the PATH.inbound 
Client
- no ports need be open on a machine acting soley as a Qube client
