AWS CLI issues with connecting from local mac

Question

I am trying to run AWS command from my local MAC, but the connection keeps timing out and traceroute is unable to get to my s3.us-east.amazonaws.com.

I have run aws configure, on both my local mac and my ec2. It works on ec2 (not surprising), but not on my local MAC.

I have a single user who has sysadmin access.

As I said, AWS works on my ec2 instance and the following command yields the following.

Is there something else I need to do to get the AWS CLI to connect from my MAC?

    [root@ip-172-31-26-40 ec2-user]# aws s3 ls
2019-11-19 19:55:14 wildrydes.denis.putnam
[root@ip-172-31-26-40 ec2-user]# aws s3api list-buckets
{
    "Owner": {
        "DisplayName": "denisputnam",
        "ID": "22873dab63c6750106aa2bf9f5584754d9b5449067a07c5ab57841967022f3fc"
    },
    "Buckets": [
        {
            "CreationDate": "2019-11-19T19:55:14.000Z",
            "Name": "wildrydes.denis.putnam"
        }
    ]
}
[root@ip-172-31-26-40 ec2-user]#

Debug output:

Do you mean s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com? Can you reach other internet locations, like Google? Are other AWS services reachable, like EC2 (aws ec2 describe-instances) or STS (aws sts get-caller-identity)? Are you using custom endpoints? Are you routing through a proxy that restricts access? — jarmod

And what about other AWS service endpoints? Do the other awscli examples I gave you work? — jarmod

This might have been answered here:

AWS S3 CLI - Could not connect to the endpoint URL

Essentially, perhaps your config file contains "us-east" instead of "us-east-1"

(The IAM timeout is trying to hit iam.us-east....But I dont think us-east without the 1 is an official region.)
