[StarCluster] Starcluster stuck during setup

Interesting: I let it go and it eventually continued but it took over an hour to Configuring passwordless ssh for root. Still waiting for the cluster to finish startup…

Subject: Starcluster stuck during setup

I'm on a slow internet connection overseas, trying to initiate a cluster using StarCluster. Once I type "starcluster start mycluster" everything seems to go ok but it gets stuck at the following point and never seems to get past it:
>>> Mounting all NFS export path(s) on 79 worker node(s)
79/79 |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 100%
>>> Setting up NFS took 2.777 mins
>>> Configuring passwordless ssh for root

Any idea why this might occur? Thanks,
Chris
