Hi,

When I was trying to launch a starcluster to test my images and config
file earlier I ran into some problems.

When I checked the available zones with the "starcluster listzones"
command (on a different machine) only four zones showed up (us-east-1a
up to us-east-1d).

> REGION  eu-west-1       ec2.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com
> REGION  us-east-1       ec2.us-east-1.amazonaws.com
> REGION  us-west-1       ec2.us-west-1.amazonaws.com
> REGION  ap-southeast-1  ec2.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com

So this made me realise the wrong region is selected.
I was wondering how I have to select the desired region
(ec2.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com)

Thanks in advance,
Gilles
