Problem connecting remote clients outside EC2
I have 2 EC2 servers connected to the manager with an elastic IP but now I'm trying to connect remote clients outside EC2. I have the client pack installed on the remote client, but it just times out.
Here's the message log:

Inappropriate?Sounds like a security group issue.
Please add your remote clients' Internet IP addresses to a managers' security group and it should work:
ec2auth MANAGER_GROUP -P udp -p 1194 -s INET_IP_ADDR/32
You can specify your entire subnet in -s option.
ElasticFox offers similar functionality, so you don't need to use command line tools for this.
