I am configuring my AWS CLI and I am trying to setup SSH. Whenever type in anything (I am just trying the default "aws-eb" I always get the error "To use this command, SSH must be installed on your local machine and available from the command line.".
Amazon says I must have ssh-keygen as well as SSH installed but I can't really find where to install SSH onto my computer.
I have installed OpenSSH Client and OpenSSH server through windows settings but that doesn't work. Can anyone help?

I'm trying to access Jupyter notebooks that are installed on AWS and I want to use a windows-10 machine to access it. The jupyter system sits behind a jump host (bastion) on aws. The process works for macs in the following way
- Instructions exist to create a ssh tunnel
- Magically the notebook is available on a browser by doing localhost:8223
The mac command for it looks like
ssh -i /pathto.id_rsa -L 8223:<some name>:8223 -f -o <some other url>
What I've been able to accomplish is the following.
- Installed putty and pageant. Set up key forwarding on putty and been able to log in to the bastion host.
- I tried foxyproxy on chrome but couldn't make much headway there.
How do I access this Jupyter notebook from windows?
Again, the set up is
windows --> [bastion] --> jupyter
I'm totally lost, any pointers or step by step instructions is much appreciated.
Try this article from my blog: https://vrnchndk.in/2017/01/27/access-blocked-websites-using-ssh-tunnel/
It has step by step instructions with screenshots as well.
After logging into the VM using vagrant ssh using GitBash on Windows 10, I don't see any directory prompts. While it does run the python web forum (for a tutorial on Udacity on Intro to Relational Databases), it won't let me run psql so I can continue the lesson. I can change directories, list information about the files, and run python but the prompt isn't working like normal.
Screenshot here: screenshot.
Please note the forum is running, this screenshot was taken after I exited and restarted vagrant.
Vagrant version 1.9.6
Ubuntu version 16.04.2 LTS
All programs installed or running in administrator mode.
I had the same problem attempting to set up Laravel Homestead - in my case it seems to be an issue with Git Bash / MINGW64.
My work-around was to use PuTTY
Install PuTTY, PuTTYgen
Create a .ppk of the key you're using to connect to the vagrant vm by loading the private key in PuTTYgen and saving the private key
Create a new PuTTY session with your vagrant details, in my case I just copied what was displayed after running "vagrant up" as far as SSH address, username (my PuTTY session Host Name would be "vagrant#localhost" port: 2222)
specify the ppk in the PuTTY configuration under Connection-> SSH-> Auth-> Private key for authentication
In short, try connecting with PuTTY or some other terminal emulator and see if you have any luck.
I wasn't able to get Git Bash to work, but the show window for the Oracle VM VirtualBox Manager does work just fine. I've been using Git Bash to start the VM, then switch to the Oracle VM UI window.
I had the same issue with truing to connect to a virtual Homestead session (Laravel) using virtual box and I was trying to connect via Gitbash MINGW64 as well.
I tried the same in cmd.exe (command: vagrant ssh) and it worked.
So should be issue with Git bash.
I just installed the aws cli (via pip install awscli per Amazon's installation instructions) on macOS 10.12.5. The installation completed without issue. But when I run the app (e.g. $ aws help) it just hangs for about a minute and finally fails with:
$ aws help
ssh: connect to host xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx port 22: Operation timed out
I've tried running it from both Python 3.6.1 and 2.7.13 environments. The macOS firewall is disabled so I'm not blocking any outbound requests.
I'm not sure what else to try at this point.
That is very strange behaviour. The AWS CLI does not activate ssh.
I would suggest that you have another script called aws somewhere in your PATH that you previously used to connect to an Amazon EC2 instance, and that script is running rather than the AWS CLI.
Run this command to discover which one it is running:
$ which aws
/usr/local/bin/aws
In this case, mine is in $ /usr/local/bin/aws help, but yours is likely to be elsewhere.
To run the correct one, use:
$ /usr/local/bin/aws help
I have been a Windows user all my life and I just got a Mac recently. With Windows (puTTY), I have "SSHed" into a local Ubuntu Server dozens of times in the past. I attempted to perform the same steps with my Mac, but I am not able to make any significant progress. Can anyone provide a guide as to how to SSH into a local Ubuntu Server?
I have a clean installation of Ubuntu Server running right now. Here is a picture of when I do "ifconfig":
The steps that I have done previously are as follows:
Install openSSH Server
In terminal, "ssh anish#localhost"
Connection is timed out or my password is not accepted.
Change it to bridged in ur VM settings in virtual box and use ssh anish#inet
I am trying to login on my ubuntu server from windows pc using putty ssh but it says connection refused.
I am able lo login on ubuntu using command
$ ssh root#MY-IP-ADDRESS
not able to login using remote server.
Please Help me.
I was having the same issue and nothing was working for me to connect to ec2 linux instance from Windows 7. Here is how i was finally able to connect.
1.) Download puttygen.exe and create a .ppk file from your .pem file that you downloaded from amazon.
2.) Use FireSSH (plug-in for Firefox), put in your host name, use 'ubuntu' (minus the quotes) for the Login, leave password blank and enter the location of the .ppk you created from puttygen.exe
Note: Oddly enough i was not able to connect using putty.exe but the private key it generates works fine with FireSSH
Did you install openssh-server ?
aptitude install openssh-server
Then also check you don't have firewall running on your Ubuntu.
