This video shows how you can SSH from one EC2 to another. It shows where to save your private key file in the originating EC2. Whether you need to use the same name as the keypair name or you can use a different name for the private key? Also, what should be the permission setting for the private key file.
Hi unus i need help about this I using office laptop for practice of aws. As I am using office laptop I not able to use cmd of laptop. But i can access Awa console through browser. How can i ssh to my rhel server from ubuntu with using cmd???
You can try the below from cloudshell. You can access cloudshell from the AWS console mainpage. Issue below commands to create keypair and launch EC2 # Create keypair aws ec2 create-key-pair --key-name MyKeyPair --query 'KeyMaterial' --output text > MyKeyPair.pem # It creates the keypair MyKeyPair.pem in your cloudshell home directory. # change permissions chmod 400 MyKeyPair.pem #Find a Ubuntu or RHEL image from EC2 launch page. ex: ami-0583d8c7a9c35822c # Create EC2 with the above AMI + above keypair. aws ec2 run-instances --image-id ami-0583d8c7a9c35822c --count 1 --instance-type t2.micro --key-name MyKeyPair --tag-specifications 'ResourceType=instance,Tags=[{Key=Name,Value=MyRHELInstance}]' # Now, you can SSH from cloudshell to your EC2. Use the connection string under EC2 console > Select instance > Click on Connect > SSH client > connection string under 'Example'

Hi sir can't we directly ssh by changing settings in /etc/ssh/sshd_config and then use ssh-keygen and ssh-copy-id to login without password?
Thanks @AdityaMoray-y9w for bringing up this point. I will update this method as well in Video description.
mine says permission denied can you help ?
Thanks a lot sir
When I'm trying to ssh, i am getting a promp for entering password, why?
