When you attempt to connect from P2, does the connection show up in the 
rabbit.log? There should be messages like

INFO REPORT==== 10-May-2010::18:27:25 ===
accepted TCP connection on 0.0.0.0:5672 from <P2-ip-addr>:38557

=INFO REPORT==== 10-May-2010::18:27:25 ===
starting TCP connection <0.13252.0> from <P2-ip-addr>:38557

Does connecting to port 5672 on MQ from Px using something like 'telnet' 
work?
