erlang / epmd Goto Github PK

The following Elixir code does not complete in finite time, when running on Windows, though the command epmd exists on PATH:

System.cmd("epmd", ["-daemon"])

• Elixir version: 1.14.5
• Erlang/OTP version: 24.3.4.12
• Running on erlef/setup-beam@v1

Thank you.

I am trying to setup epmd to listen to only ONE local IPv4.
No binding to 0.0.0.0 or :::.

$ ERL_EPMD_ADDRESS=10.40.95.10 epmd -d
epmd: Tue Oct  6 21:38:18 2020: epmd running - daemon = 0
epmd: Tue Oct  6 21:38:18 2020: failed to bind on ipaddr 0.0.0.0: Cannot assign requested address

It tries to listen to ::1, too, as an strace shows.
I think this is either a bug or needs a -4 parameter to only listen to IPv4 addresses.

For context: I am trying to setup rabbitmq. Not 100% sure, if this is the correct epmd.
