No you shouldn't need to change that. The choice between long and 
shortnames is about whether or not you're fully qualifying your hostname 
with the domain or not. This is *not* why you cannot cluster your 
rabbits. You can't cluster them because they cannot talk to the epmd 
daemons on one another's nodes, as evidenced by the fact that you cannot 
telnet onto it. If *this* works, then you should be able to cluster 
without changing too much: `telnet <hostname> <epmd-port>`
