SSH to amazon instance times out


Tried Amazon AMI and Linux AMI

Yup, set up my security groups with anywhere port 22

what else can i try? the log for the instance looks ok, like it started up and it's running. the status checks are 2/2

what else can i try? cheers


Solution

  • FWIW, i had a bad subnet. When i launched a new instance and picked a different subnet, I was then able to SSH. (I never modified the default subnets that came with my account).
