If the full computer name is turkeyhotels, try use

If the domain is DHGROUP, is that not the workgroup name?
DHGROUP is not a complete DNS domain. It appears your machine
is not configured for a DNS environment, and that is bad
for Erlang/OTP.
But try bilbo@turkeyhotels...

Tried it. Doesn't work :(<br>
When I run "erl -name some_name" on Linux machine I get this:<br>

where DHGROUP is our workgroup. I then run "erl -name
another_name@turkeyhotels" on my Windows box and try to call it from

Hmmm... Whatever shall I do? I was hoping I could develop a distributed
system and just run it on a network... No it looks like I need a way to
quickly and painlessly configure a system (any system) to work with
Erlang/OTP...<br>

If you do not know it, right click on "My Computer",
choose "Properties", "Computer Name", and compare
the "Full computer name" with the "Domain". The
difference should be the short (unqualified) hostname.

<pre wrap="">What do you mean by difference?
If full computer name is turkeyhotels and domain is DHGROUP then the
hostname would be?
