[erlang-questions] epmd spamming syslog

[B. Nicholson]

One other thing, any time another distributed vm is started (i.e. "erl 
-sname newnode") this message is logged.  Are you sure another instance 
of a distributed node isn't being started about once or twice a 
minute.   I haven't seen rabbitmq do this except when restarting.
