Yes. Environment variables do not survive when you change user.

This has not taken effect because start-rabbitmq.sh changes to the
rabbitmq user.

Not quite sure why this hasn't worked though...

matthew at mrnibble:~$ cat foo.sh
#! /bin/sh
echo $FOO
matthew at mrnibble:~$ export FOO=wibble
matthew at mrnibble:~$ echo $FOO
wibble
matthew at mrnibble:~$ ./foo.sh 
wibble
matthew at mrnibble:~$ sudo ./foo.sh


I.e. FOO does not appear when you become root. Put the NODENAME in the
/etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq.conf file
