Cool gonna try this out , can be handy instead of creating it from scratch every time during tests

It is a real time saver. Have fun creating ready to use VM's in seconds.

i was thinking about why would i disable root , makes no sense if I'm trying to use everything properly but I read your comment on how to disable it without messing with sudo privs. makes perfect sense now! thanks!

It works great. The user that cloud init creates has sudo privileges and it prevents log in from root, the only known user that has all privileges on a Linux system. If you disable ssh password login and add ssh keys to cloud init, you can stamp out a relatively secure fleet of VMs in minutes.
