 -rsh Program
+

Note that the command specified with the -rsh flag is + treated as a file name which may contain spaces. It is thus not + possible to include any command line options. The remote node will + be launched as "$RSH" "$REMOTE_HOSTNAME" erl -detached -noinput + ..., so the + erl command must be found in the path on the remote host.

+

The slave node is to use the same file system at the master. At least, Erlang/OTP is to be installed in the same place on both computers and the same version of Erlang is to be used.
