[erlang-questions] Interconnect question: how to work with names

[Max Lapshin]

myserver.l and 127.0.0.1  is the same server. I run it from this server.

There is node  called "master" in epmd and I do not understand why I can
connect to it via hostname: master@REDACTED and
cannot connect to it via 127.0.0.1
