I'm following the instructions "by the book" and things used to work  
without any issues. As the code hasn't changed and I even downgraded ES to  
v1.4.2 from v1.4.4, I wonder why suddenly my EC2 cluster doesn't work. I've  
submitted an issue here  
[https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-cloud-aws/issues/181](https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-cloud-aws/issues/181), but  
it's being neglected. Can you guys help?

I keep getting the following error:

Exception while retrieving instance list from AWS API: Unable to execute  
HTTP request: peer not authenticated

I used the recommended by you IAM role, but I also tried overriding IAM and  
using an omnipotent AWS key - I still get the error regardlessly.

I'm using v2.4.1 version of the plugin currently with ES v1.4.2, but, as I  
said, v1.4.4 doesn't work either.
