Thanks for that info Nicky.   I wish I'd known that a year ago.

Looking in Imprudence.log the first appearance of the region UDP address:port 
was in a line with this heading:

LLCircuit::addCircuitData for 

The log gives a fairly detailed account of what's going on during a handshake 
failure.

  If not already done, look at the viewer log. It should have some uri info at 
the message output point.

  Kenneth,
    If you're logging on to the region that uses port 9000 that's the port that 
will be used.
    Maybe a step by step on the handshake process will give a clue -

        Your server passes the IP address of the region paired with the port 
number to the viewer.
        You specify:
            ExternalHostName = 
"ec2-46-51-xxx-xxx.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com"
        Your server resolves that to an address and passed that (not the URL 
string) along to the viewer.
        This could cause a problem if at the server the ExternalHostName is 
resolved to something other than the proper external IP address (such as the 
local IP address.)
        The viewer takes the passes address/port and attempts to converse with 
the server using it.
        Then if too much time passes the viewer will declare a failure.

  Typically the problem is either wrong address used or port blocked.
  Because you're confident the port is open now I'd look into the address being 
passed.  Unfortunately the log messages related to the regions either show you 
'resolved local address:port' or 'unresolved URL address:port' which give no 
clue.  Perhaps someone knows a good tool to track down the actual address 
passed to the viewer.
