I just can’t believe that in this day and age we are still forced to use command lines for simple tasks…and people talk crap about MS RDP. They deserve a praise.

Thank you for breaking it down. I lost hours trying to get it to go. I read the PuTTY manual and the AWS docs but was still floundering. I didn’t download the KeyGen.

You just took the “Pu” out of PuTTY, for me. It stunk before I found your article.

Lew,

Very useful blog! Great info!

This is the first blog I have ever found where I not only
read the current article and subscribed to the RSS feed
for future articles, but also went back and read every
single old article. Lots of good stuff here. Thanks!

I had already written my own series of tips on Cloud
Computing at:
http://bristle.com/Tips/CloudComputing.htm
and had already prepared and delivered my own talk on
Cloud Computing at:
http://bristle.com/Presentations/CloudComputing
using my own open source HTML/JavaScript-based
PowerPoint-like software available at:
http://bristle.com

I have now gone back and added “For more info” links to
several of your blog articles from several of my tips and
slides.

Thanks!
