* Package name : ec2-instance-connect Version : 1.1.19 Upstream Contact: Daniel Anderson <d...@amazon.com> * URL : https://github.com/aws/aws-ec2-instance-connect-config * License : Apache-2.0 Programming Lang: POSIX shell Description : Configures ssh daemon to accept EC2 Instance Connect ssh keys EC2 Instance Connect is a service that publishes ssh keys for use by EC2 instances based on AWS Credentials. These keys are consumed by on-instance configuration provided by this package. The ssh daemon will query EC2 Instance Metadata service for user-keys at ssh calltime, validate any if present as well as validating their signature, and if all checks pass return will include them in the authorized keys list. . In addition, there is an agent that harvests instance ssh host keys and passes them back to the service. This is for authentication purposes by the EC2 console to open an in-browser ssh terminal connection. BTW, it's already packaged in Ubuntu: https://packages.ubuntu.com/source/plucky/ec2-instance-connect -- Miguel Landaeta, nomadium at debian.org secure email with PGP 0x6E608B637D8967E9 available at http://miguel.cc/key.
