I went on to my amazon ec2 successfully and I have been experimenting around. I found it annoying that I needed to always run sudo on everything so what I decided to do was to go to the route directory and change the permissions of everything to write, write, and execute.
I did so doing the following
chmod -R 777 .
I then exited out of the server.
The next time I tried to logon I got
"ssh_exchange_identification: read: Connection reset by peer"
How can I fix this?
Thank you
“connection reset by peer meaning” is the TCP / IP equivalent of locking the phone back on the hook. Or, it simply means that the device encounters a network error when receiving data from the server. It's more polite than just not responding and leaving someone hanging out.
My solution is probably trivial, but who knows who it could help:
I simply rebooted my EC2 instance in the browser (AWS -> EC2 Dashboard -> instances -> (select your instance) -> (click the action dropdown) -> Instance State -> Reboot
You may want to give it a minute before you try you ssh connection command again. Hope that helps someone.
