Thanks Nick. it would be nice to pack such work-arounds together with Cassandra, and enable it with a command line arg in the start up script, so that the end-user has a more smooth usage experience ----- we did spend some time before to debug the ports issues, and find a trick for that. I imagine a lot of users will have to go through the same process since "closing all ports" is the default EC2 network security policy for most companies. Or at least add a link for the fix in the installation wikis such as http://www.datastax.com/docs/1.1/install/install_ami<https://webmail.iac.com/owa/redir.aspx?C=PLVE6taKpU--Dxw69WVEOtdUcArCWM8IUH6LBjdXcM7STlqwkARq8mA8Nva_mtGaSKmmva4pWxE.&URL=http%3a%2f%2fwww.datastax.com%2fdocs%2f1.1%2finstall%2finstall_ami>
