   for documentation purposes;

1> Epmd = fun() ->
    {ok,Sock} = gen_tcp:connect("localhost",4369,[list,{active,false},{packet,0}]),
    gen_tcp:send(Sock,<<0,1,110>>),
    {ok,[_,_,_,_|R]} = gen_tcp:recv(Sock,0),
    gen_tcp:close(Sock),
    string:tokens(R,"\n")
   end.

2> Epmd().
["name foog at port 35700",
  "name dgen at port 35247",
  "name sherk_3551 at port 34706"]

   is it just me or is the erlang version significantly shorter? :>
