Hi Marty,

Thanks for the reply. It doesn’t really get to the management server since it’s 
failing before that.

 431 Please specify a valid URL. URL:null is invalid

I’ve since gone through the code and figured out that the current 
implementation requires that the [manifest] parameter (according to the ec2 
spec) is set and is used as the URL. So I’ll be changing that for us to make 
this possible (i.e. to create register a snapshot without having a URL to it). 
I’ve also added the ability to register an ISO image with ec2-register. I can 
commit these changes, when done, to the master branch if anyone is interested.

Cheers,
