Ubuntu Desktop 20.04 LTS - GUI Gnome with VNC and RDP
Arara Solutions | v0725-30Linux/Unix, Ubuntu 20.04 - 64-bit Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
Swift build. I recommend
I found this system much cleaner and faster than the other AMIs I tested.
Also great that it came out of the box with the major updates installed and security is just right.
Definitely sticking with this one.
Worked as Advertised
It works out of the box, as advertised.
The disgruntled user who said it did not having a working user probably didn't notice the "Usage instructions" tab on the instance in the AWS console.
I'm only giving it 4 out of 5 stars because the vendor advertised "24/7/365 support". I raised a ticket on their site that I could not connect to my instance and designated the ticket as Critical. I'm annoyed that 48 hours later I still haven't heard from them. I eventually figured out my problem (it wasn't the AMI's fault).
And now I'm happily configuring the instance to my own personal preferences...
you can build it yourself... but it JUST WORKS
purchased this to save myself the work of having to setup and update everything. they're also good at updating the image so you don't even have to run apt update on boot
working out of the box
hi!
it's working nicely out of the box, I was wondering, how do I restart the GUI if the EC2 got rebooted?
Many thanks,
Herve
Doesn't Have a working user
Does not have a working user. Tried the first 8 characters. Then the first 8 digits, skipping characters. No success.
