euca-describe-availibility-zones errors out for non admin users

Asked by Sonali Parthasarathy

When i source the credentials for a non admin user and execute the euca-describe-availibility-zones commans, it give me a 401 unauthorized user error. However, if i sue the admin creds it works just fine. here's the error I get:
