This is a basic connection but is so hard to find a very clear explanation like this one. Nobody ever told me about the directory move, that's a game changer, thanks a lot for your help!

[@nickpiombino7685]

If we want to use this instance should we hit stop at the end instead of terminating?

[@AOSNote]

Hi Nick. Yes, you can stop the instance if you want to continue using it.

[@nickpiombino7685]

@@AOSNote thank you for your reply. So once it’s terminated I need to redo a new one right?

[@AOSNote]

@@nickpiombino7685 Yes, you have to launch a new ec2 if you terminated the other one

You're welcome! Remember to apply the chmod 400 command to your key pair and ensure that you execute the ssh command from the directory where your key pair is located.

[@Radiatorblue]

it is says that the permission is denied for me, any ideas?

[@mdkanokhossain1445]

Thank you so much 🙃

[@annemarien2393]

Hey, thank you so much, the tutorial is very easy to follow. I run into an issue when I try to ssh into my EC2 instance. I get an error saying "Operation timed out". I am not sure why that is the case

[@223froggyfun]

Any timeout is related to security group or a firewall, ensure your security group is correct (port, protocol, source IPs etc) and assigned to the EC2 instance. If there is still a connection timeout issue, it means a corporate firewall, or a personal firewall is blocking the connection.Jan 24, 2020

[@ahmednasiru1793]

Thank you, Azeez. Everyone else online was scholarly with their demo without explaining the basics as you did. You just gain a follower and thank you for the good work!

[@AOSNote]

You're very welcome!

great lecture

[@zynabbiba6118]

I have a MacBook Pro and I’m unable to access the Aws sandbox environment. It completely blank when I tried to open it.

[@AOSNote]

Hi Zynab, The process works for any Mac computer. Also, did you launch your own ec2 instance? Who is providing the sandbox environment that you mentioned?

[@Bluearif]

What an outstanding explanation, specifically about the directory movement! I've spent a couple of hours, and still wasn't able to do it, but when I follow your one, it works perfectly, keep going, brother! cheers 👌👏👊

[@AOSNote]

You're very welcome!

[@johnsonmathew345]

Hi, thank you for this detailed video. I do have a question though, I followed every step as per process. However, at the end when you get the prompt for ' Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no/fingerprint)? I typed yes, but I got a message - Permission denied (publickey). Can you please kindly suggest what to do next?

[@AOSNote]

Hello Johnson, that error is always related to your key pair. please make sure you have specified the correct key pair name and path in your command

[@johnsonmathew345]

@@AOSNote Thank you for your prompt response. Much appreciated. I will check it again now. Happy New Year!

[@JoeyT]

Thank you brother!!! I was having a very hard time accessing my instances and the directory was not set! Thank you so much! Please keep the videos coming and the attention to detail is remarkable! I'm currently taking my SAA and I will gladly look into taking my developers and or SysOps with you if it's available.

Update...I'm training to become a DevOps Engineer so I will take your DO course when I'm done.
