Connect Amazon EC2 / GoGrid with OpenVPN VPN-Cubed Part 2

I try to install the VPN-Cubed into Amazon EC2 and GoGrid

with the following Howto http://www.cohesiveft.com/dnld/VPN-Cubed_051_SSL-to-Cloud_Free-Edition_20091124.pdf

Using the EC2 command line:
  • export EC2_URL=https://us-east-1.ec2.amazonaws.com
  • ec2-add-group vpncubed-mgr -d “vpncubed managers”
  • ec2-add-group vpncubed-client -d “vpncubed clients”
  • ec2auth vpncubed-mgr -P udp -p 1194 -o vpncubed-client -u AWS_ACCOUNT
  • ec2auth vpncubed-mgr -P tcp -p 8000 -o vpncubed-mgr -u AWS_ACCOUNT
  • ec2auth vpncubed-mgr -P udp -p 1195-1197 -o vpncubed-mgr -u AWS_ACCOUNT
  • ec2auth vpncubed-mgr -P tcp -p 8000 -s IP_WHERE_YOU_WILL_MANAGE_CUBE/32
IMPORTANT: This line limits cube access. Use this technique for security of your network.
The /32 means “host only” and is needed in the command.
Now repeat same ec2 commands for EU region:
  • export EC2_URL=https://eu-west-1.ec2.amazonaws.com
  • <ec2 commands from above>
Unset the EC2_URL variable:
  • export EC2_URL=

and after this I don’t see my keypairs anymore !

and also the one from GoGrid but  unfortunately  I was not able to add my own Private Cloud into this connection

I need some more Infos about the VPN Cubed Manager but I can’t find it.

I now wrote a email to Cohesiveft.com, now we will see.
