Try using nodes with short hostnames in the config file. See
 http://www.rabbitmq.com/clustering.html
for the correct format of nodes that are accepted. You can find the
short name by running "hostname -s" or start Erlang with "erl -sname
foo" and inspecting the prompt (the part after "foo@"). If you can start
a node without clustering then you can find the node name reported in
"rabbitmqctl status" also.

Make sure to check the advice at
  http://www.rabbitmq.com/clustering.html#firewall
and
  http://www.rabbitmq.com/ec2.html
