Congratulations.

Can you list the wiki page(s) you were following, and the problems you 
encountered? Maybe we could update them.

If I recall correctly, that’s some rather old work from Simon McLean—but that’s 
where I started as well. To this day, we still deploy our apps with a (now 
heavily modified) version of that script.

That’s a good idea, though if your IP address isn’t static, you can avoid 
constantly changing the security group by tunnelling over SSH:

$ ssh -L 56789:localhost:56789 ec2-u...@your.ec2.host.name 
<mailto:ec2-u...@your.ec2.host.name>

That will tunnel local 56789 over SSH to the remote’s 56789, security group 
doesn’t need to know anything about it. JavaMonitor is then at:

http://localhost:56789/ <http://localhost:56789/>
