The EMPD (Erlang Port Mapper Daemon) is the guy behind the guy behind the guy. Seriously tho, he's how Erlang nodes know about other Erlang nodes. We can talk to EPMD from Haskell as long as we speak with the Erlang Distribution Protocol, which is fortunately documented here
In this project, the module that really talks to EPMD is Network
runghc Test will start a haskell erlang node that registers itself
with EPMD and will respond to "SEND_NAME" as defined by the Erlang
Distribution Protocol
