On machine A
  epmd -daemon
  erl -name bill -setcookie TheSameCookie

On machine B
  epmd -daemon

  #!/usr/bin/env escript
  main(_) ->
    ok = application:start(inets),
    {ok, _} = net_kernel:start([john]),
    true = auth:set_cookie('TheSameCookie'),
	io:format("Result: ~p~n",
	[
		rpc:call('bill@REDACTED', erlang, time, [])
	]).

Please note, on machine B you must use a fully qualified domain name
instead of the IP address and that must match with the resolved name
on machine A. In a none production machine it's easier to use short
names.
