Hey guys - thanks everyone for your help. Thought I'd update the list with resolution, in case others have the same problem and are searching the list archives. There were two different dumb things I was doing.<div><br>
</div><div>The first (REALLY dumb) was that I had stopped and started one of my EC2 instance and the DNS / IP had changed. Make sure you've got elastic IPs set up so that the IP address isn't changing on you.</div>
<div><br></div><div>After that, I was still getting timeout errors with Shovel. The issue was that I had to open up port 5672 on windows firewall on my windows server. Remember that, for windows servers on EC2, there are effectively two�separate places that access is locked down -- EC2 security groups and windows firewall; both need to be configured to allow access on 5672.</div>

</div>It looks like the authentication is failing. Could you double check that the<br>
credentials you configured shovel with are correct? The logs on the broker will<br>
help understanding what's going on. Also, don't forget to tell us what version<br>
of rabbit you are using when posting to the mailing list.<br>
