Bug Description

euca_conf runs the following test to switch to local copy of keys in sync_keys:

if [ ${REMOTE} = "127.0.0.1" -o ${REMOTE} = localhost -o ${REMOTE} = "`hostname -s`" -o ${REMOTE} = "`hostname -f`" ]; then
     # machine is localhost, not need for remote syncing

Since eucalyptus now refuses euca_conf to be run with "localhost" or anything that resolves to the local link, we need to switch component registration to an external address, which makes this code fail to run.

A --local switch in euca_conf could be used to force local copy (rather than this dodgy test).
