Er, yes he is. Hence the {rabbit,37223} line.

Or the cookies simply don't match. Check the startup log of the nodes, 
which displays their cookie hashes, and compare that info to what is 
shown by rabbitmqctl.

Or the ports aren't accessible due to firewalls etc. Try connecting to 
the port displayed for rabbit in the diagnostics, e.g. "telnet rabbit3 
37223".
