[Paraview] Unable to connect to pvserver in client/server mode

I have build ParaView3 sources on my local desktop machine and a remote server. I plan to use the ParaView3 in client/server mode. The sources are compiled with openmpi and osmesa on both the client and server. I have enabled password less ssh from my desktop to server.
The problem is that when I start the pvserver on server and try to connect the paraview client through command line option, the client fails to connect to the server and displays an error.

On server side the pvserver runs without a problem.
[raashid at n0 ~]$ cd src/cvs/ParaView3-unix-new/bin/
[raashid at n0 bin]$ ./pvserver 
Listen on port: 11111
Waiting for client...

On client side.
raashid at ICC-PUNE-DSK-20:~/src/cvs/ParaView3-unix-new/bin$ ./paraview --server=192.168.3.48
ERROR: In /home/raashid/src/cvs/ParaView3/VTK/Parallel/vtkClientSocket.cxx, line 53
vtkClientSocket (0x872a4a8): Failed to connect to server 192.168.3.48:11111

I have no clue what is the problem ? Why is the error pointed to a file in the source directory and not the build directory ? any help is welcome.
