Amazon EC2 question
A bit off topic, again.

I've been playing with Amazon EC2 and considering an EC2 Micro instance connected via VPN as a backup domain controller. When I was done playing around last night, I shut down the instance from within the Windows remote desktop. Imagine my surprise to come back and find the instance gone this morning.

I had the instance set to Stop on shutdown, not Terminate.

Anyone know what might have happened?

BTW, it seems to work fine as a backup domain controller.
