Hi all,
thanks for your reply, now time to debug ...
So far, i've been not able to see other nodes from my local machine,
however, when I run the following command, i can connect remotely to
others nodes
"erl -n theName -rmsh theExistingNode@REDACTED" (I think there are some
other parameters)

thanks again,

Jean
