During the configuration of your instance you should have created a security group allowing at the minimum SSH access to the instance. If this has been done correctly, you can use SSH from the command-line or from a tool such as PuTTY to access the command-line of the user sshuser user on  on the Charon-SSP instance. If you select your instance in the instance list and then click on Connect, you will see the instructions for connecting via SSH.

• the public DNS name of the instance.

 The file permissions of the private key file must be set such that the file is only readable by the user as shown in the chmod example above.

 Initial management password configuration: before connecting to the Charon-SSW AWS host with the Charon Manager for the first time after the initial installation of your instance you must set the management password. This can either be done via the Charon Manager itself (see Connecting with the Charon-SSP Manager) or via the command line as shown below.

Steps to set the management password:

• Log in to the Charon host using SSH as show above.
• Become the root user (sudo -i).
• Change to the Charon Agent utilities directory (cd /opt/charon-agent/ssp-agent/utils).
• Run the charon-password script (./charon-passwd).
• Enter and confirm the new management password when prompted.

After this has been completed, you can connect to the host using the Charon Manager with the new management password.

Below, you see sample output of the steps:

$ ssh -i .ssh/mykey.pem  sshuser@3.86.14.26sshuser@<public-ip-address>
[sshuser@ip-172-31-35-32 ~]$ sudo -i
[root@ip-172-31-35-32 ~]# cd /opt/charon-agent/ssp-agent/utils
[root@ip-172-31-35-32 utils]# ./charon-passwd
Enter new Charon password:
