Hi Alex,

I've deployed it on ec2, not yet automated but I'm working on it. Heres my
current spread.conf (2 nodes)

#####################################
Spread_Segment 10.252.41.255:4803 {
  s1 10.252.41.242
}

Spread_Segment 10.252.46.255:4803 {
  s2 10.252.46.161
}

SocketPortReuse = AUTO
EventLogFile = /mnt/log/spread_%h.log
EventTimeStamp
DaemonUser = spread
DaemonGroup = spread
#####################################

There are 2 big issues here: First, ec2 doesn't allow multicast so you must
put each instance in its own segment.
Second, is the ec2 internal domain name is too long for spread to handle.
So I shortened them so s1 and s2.

Ideally this config would be dynamically generated based on the instances
available and instance user-data.

Other spread users have any suggestions or ideas? Is it a performace hit to
increase the allowed domain length?
