EXPORTS
Types:
Returns yes if communication with Node is authorized. Note that a connection to Node will be established in this case. Returns no if Node does not exist or communication is not authorized (it has another cookie than auth thinks it has).
Use net_adm:ping(Node) instead.
Types:
Use erlang:get_cookie() instead.
Types:
Use erlang:set_cookie(node(), Cookie) instead.
node_cookie([Node, Cookie]) -> yes | no
Equivalent to node_cookie(Node, Cookie).
node_cookie(Node, Cookie) -> yes | no
Sets the magic cookie of Node to Cookie, and verifies the status of the authorization. Equivalent to calling erlang:set_cookie(Node, Cookie), followed by auth:is_auth(Node).
