[Paraview] "Client/server version hash mismatch", even when versions are the same

[Stanbridge, Christopher William]

Dear ParaViewers,

I am attempting to set up a client/server connection between a default
installation of ParaView 4.3.1 on the client side and an OSMesa build --
presumably also 4.3.1; built according to the wiki's instructions at
http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/ParaView_And_Mesa_3D -- on the server
side. Both computers have graphics hardware; using an ssh tunnel is not
acceptable for our purposes due to the requirement to disable all security
using *xhost+*. The computers also have default installations of 4.0.1.
Both are running VTK 5.8.

Despite the ParaView and VTK versions on both ends being identical, I
receive "Client/server handshake failed" and "Client/server version hash
mismatch" errors every time I attempt to connect. What could be the cause
of this issue?
