How can I connect to Amazon EC2 without ssh?

If a reboot does not work and you are running an EBS boot AMI/instance (recommended), then you can get access to the root disk of the instance using a method I write about in this article: Fixing Files on the Root EBS Volume of an EC2 Instance alestic.com/2011/02/ec2-fix-ebs-root If you are running an instance-store AMI/instance (not recommended), then you are in trouble and may need to beg Amazon through your premium support contract to see if there is any chance they can make the root disk information available to you.

You can use the AWS console to reboot the instance.

I was preparing a new instance and installed a new version of open ssh, that for some reason did not start automatically. I lost my connection just after I noticed. So it looks like there is a chance my instance will never start again if I stop it right now and all the work will be lost.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
