Has anyone developed a means to lock down the mysql servers and app
servers so they will only accept connections from the www server via
ports 3306, 80, and 443?  It seems that the default is for them to be
wide open to the world, which is not ideal from a security
standpoint.

We could do it by reserving a block of elastic IPs, but that seems
silly as you have to have a bunch of unused IPs sitting around at $15/
mo each.  Plus you cap the number of servers you can launch by the
number of IPs you purchase.

Better would be a startup script that adds all IPs in the farm to the
firewall allowed list and then some kind of notification mechanism
when new servers are launched.  Does anyone do this?
