What is "Amazon Linux 2023" default username?


What is AWS ec2 "Amazon Linux 2023" default username? 'ec2-user' is not working

previous versions of Amazon Linux, including Amazon Linux 2, the default username is "ec2-user"

but 'ec2-user' is not working in 2023 version


Solution

    I created an instance of Amazon Linux 2023 and ec2-user was the default username...
