Data Input not working for s3 plugin -- perhaps inputs.conf.spec is wrong?

does that bucket have a contain called tiles-cdn?

I've got an input for cloudfront:

[s3://freesoft001]
key_id = AKIA
# This is Amazon key ID.
secret_key = riuvl
# This is the secret key.
sourcetype=freesoft_cloudfront

which captures my S3 logs no problem. freesoft001 has a container called cloud-front, and Splunk successfully traverses down into it, but it doesn't show up on my inputs screen.
