Managing Windows Servers

Windows Servers on AWS

• While creating you are supposed to use a key pair
• note: donot use the id_rsa generated locally
• Windows servers can be connected by using remote desktop connections (rdp)
• rdp required 3389 port
• While connecting to the machine we need to generate password using private key
• mstsc -v <publicip>

---

Windows Servers on Azure

• In Azure we have option to set password and username while creation and Azure doesnot support ssh keys gor windows

Activity 8: Create an webserver to host a website on AWS in ubuntu Linux

• Our Website template: Refer Here
• Webservers:
  • apache
  • nginx
• We will be using nginx
• Installing nginx on ubuntu

sudo apt update
sudo apt install nginx -y

• Now we need to download our template and make it run on nginx

sudo apt install unzip -y
cd /tmp
wget https://www.free-css.com/assets/files/free-css-templates/download/page294/troweld.zip
unzip troweld.zip

• Now move troweld-html folder to the folder where nginx will host /var/www/html

sudo mv troweld-html /var/www/html/troweld

sudo mv troweld-html /var/www/html/troweld

Activity 9: We are asked to do the same for one more ec2 and one more azure vm

• case: We need to install the necessary softwares once after creating the ec2 instance
• All the steps which we have executed are linux commands executed on bash
• IF we summarize

#!/bin/bash
sudo apt update
sudo apt install nginx unzip -y
cd /tmp && wget https://www.free-css.com/assets/files/free-css-templates/download/page294/troweld.zip && unzip troweld.zip
sudo mv /tmp/troweld-html /var/www/html/troweld

• All cloud providers give us userdata or custom data where we can run any script post creation.
• In the userdata there is no need to specify sudo as it runs as a root user
