looking at tcpdump the command "erl -sname somestrangename" calls epmd from 
the public IP of the machine. "web1" is the aliased to 127.0.0.1 in 
/etc/hosts. With the alias removed the tcpdump shows 'localhost' in place of 
'web1'.

14:41:27.874188 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 61958, offset 0, flags [DF], proto TCP 
(6), length 52)

As far as I understand the above command 'should' be binding and calling epmd 
from 'localhost', not an arbitrary mounted IP.
