Hi,

Assume, I am having 2 ec2 accounts (say A and B), both have different list of security groups. Now I want to open a particular port (say 80) for an instance running in account A, to account B. ie, I want to only allow account B instances, to access account A's 80 port. Could any one update me, is there a way to do this.??

Additionally, may I access account A's instance from account B's instance by using its private ip address/host name ??

Thanks in Advance,
