Your connection is not private
I setup an instance with this AMI. Installation is pretty straight-forward. But I am not able to access the admin page. Browsers are blocking it with this error "Your connection is not private". I can't bypass this. Going to shutdown the instance.
Works well on the 3rd attempt at installing
VPN works well and is very useful for staff with dynamic IP addresses on their home internet.
For someone reason it to 3 attempts to get it installed. The only way I could get it to work was to assign the EIP to the server before running the application wizard and to have everything fully open (Admin site and VPN) to the world and then lock down the Admin site afterwards.
A bit expensive compared to some of the other offerings in the Market place, but it is probably the easiest for staff to be able to connect up.
