Also, once my friend logged in to his cluster he received the error "Permissions 0644 for 'FinalKey.pem' are too open." This sounds like the other problem described. How do we make the permissions more private?

The regions advice solved the problem for my friend who was getting the key pair does not exist problem. I am still getting the error: ERROR:boto:400 Bad Request ERROR:boto:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Response><Errors><Error><Code>InvalidParameterValue</Code><Message>Invalid value 'null' for protocol.

Any advice would be much appreciated!
