I found if we run distributed erlang over SSL, it only affects
those<BR>distributed command like spawn_link. It doesn't affect primitive
command<BR>like message passing command - '!' which we concern about. Cause
that means <BR>if we run distributed Mnesia, it doesn't automatically have
encrypted<BR>communication between Mnesia nodes even if SSL is employed. Is
that correct?<BR><BR>Thanks a lot,<BR>Renyi.</BLOCKQUOTE>
<DIV><BR>Hmm..I don't know about that. I never tried erlang dist over SSL.
When you say you found out, how did you find out? Did you sniff the IP traffic
between the nodes and successfully decode them?
