[erlang-questions] [Windows] I can't create named node

[Lukas Larsson]

Ofcourse you are not supposed to handle that yourself. the most probable
reason why you are not getting any help is because most of us here run on a
*nix OS and hence have not run into many of the Erlang on Windows problems.

I do know that this is not a general Win XP SP3 problem, but rather
something with your specific setup. I'm assuming you have updated to the
latest patches and made sure that your network is setup correctly? From what
I understand EWOULDBLOCK is a way of the posix sockets to say to the
application that it should try again later to do the listen on the socket
because of whatever reason. Maybe there are permission problems?

Have you tried starting the epmd program seperately? Maybe even try to run
it on a seperate port? See http://www.erlang.org/doc/man/epmd.html for
details

I'm shooting in the dark here, but maybe I'll hit something.
