Hello All,

I've installed the RPM ( from
http://www.rabbitmq.com/install-rpm.html) on a RHEL6 server and used
the init.d script "rabbitmq-server" to start the server.  However,
when I  run "rabbitmqctl status", I get the following suggesting
there's a problem:

[rabbitmq at squall rabbitmq]$ ./bin/rabbitmqctl status
Status of node rabbit at squall ...
Error: unable to connect to node rabbit at squall: nodedown

DIAGNOSTICS
===========

nodes in question: [rabbit at squall]

hosts, their running nodes and ports:
- squall: [{rabbitmqctl23373,52427}]

current node details:
- node name: rabbitmqctl23373 at squall
- home dir: /home/rabbitmq
- cookie hash: 0W8f6ODD6SgYDvLAojR/Zw==


I've confirmed there's a .erlang.cookie in the home directory of the
process owner.  Can someone please help me understand what the problem
might be?

Thanks!
