Distribution problems

[Thomas Lange]

It seems strange that the second node is named @linux.local.
The first one is only @linux.
With -sname, I think it should be @linux only( i.e. hostname only ).

Sometimes erlang requires a cookie to be set to allow distribution.
( Earlier releases or between different hosts?? )

You could try that ( -setcookie anything ).

e.g.
erl -sname a -setcookie pelle
