Hi Richard - thanks for the reply…
Did you convert the keypair with puttygen?
yes. The new file is called wowza-keypair-putty.ppk
Re: Elasticfox. Wonder why I need Elasticfox or the command line at all, since I am able to create instances using the AWS EC2 Console?
I installed ElasticFox, created a keypair called elasticfox1.pem, saved it, loaded it, got this as result:
Couldn’t launch: c:\Program Files\Putty\putty.exe
Component returned failure code: 0x80520012 (NS_ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND) [nsIProcess.init]
I then launched putty separately and used the elastic IP to find the server. Got the following error when I tried to login as root:
Unable to use key file “C:\EC2\keys\elasticfox1.pem” (OpenSSH SSH-2 private key)
login as: root
Any thoughts? I have been at this for over a week and I still can’t get it running. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Mike
