epmd kill

[Ashok Hariharan]

I noticed in the epmd documentation :

http://www.erlang.org/doc/man/epmd.html

You need to set this enviornment variable to be able to kill epmd using the -kill command :

ERL_EPMD_RELAXED_COMMAND_CHECK

If set prior to start, the epmd daemon will behave as if the -relaxed_command_check option was given at start-up. If consequently setting this option before starting the Erlang virtual machine, the automatically started epmd will accept the -kill and -stop commands without restrictions.

Can you try setting this environment variable for rabbitmq in supervisor ? i think setting this should fix the problem.
