Description
When connecting to OpenNebula through its EC2 compatible interface (using libcloud Eucalyptus driver) on a non standard port, the user authentication fails.
Example, with libcloud trunk from git repository:
$ python
Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Dec 26 2010, 22:31:48)
[GCC 4.4.5] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import libcloud.compute.providers
>>> import libcloud.compute.types
>>> Driver=libcloud.compute.providers.get_driver(libcloud.compute.types.Provider.EUCALYPTUS)
>>> conn = Driver(host="myhost",port=4567,key="oneadmin",secret="mysecret",secure=False,path="/")
>>> conn.list_images()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>

This is because libcloud never includes the port number after the hostname in the authentication signature added to HTTP header. The port number should be included if it is non default (!= 80 for HTTP and !=443 for HTTPS). This is the standard behavior for HTTP requests (see http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.23).
I am attaching a patch (against git trunk version) that modifies the EC2Connection._get_aws_auth_param() function to address the bug. It solves my problem:
