[rabbitmq-discuss] Join_Cluster Question

Fri Feb 8 22:00:32 GMT 2013

I've frequently been pantsed about node names when connecting from places
like public libraries where I get a surprise DHCP assigned hostname that
disagrees with the "real" one that Rabbit and Erlang compose into my
'rabbit at mylaptopsrealname' nodename.

Sticking mylaptopsrealname into /etc/hosts explicitly usually banishes the
problem for me.
