Can't login to kali linux 2020
There is definitely some issue with kali linux 2020 AMI. Never allowed to login over ssh and not even port 22 is listening to telnet. which suspect something fishy and need to look in to by the provider

Is this AMI broken? Port 22 seems completely closed
I've installed this into a VPC which I have other AMIs running in. I can SSH into my other boxes, but this image, I can't seem to SSH into it. I don't think the problem is with keys or credentials (although I've double checked just to be sure I'm specifying those correctly). From what I can see, port 22 is not even OPEN on this AMI. I have verified that I have TCP port 22 allowed from my IP address in the security group. I'm certain of this, because I'm using this same security group for other [non-Kali] machines within in the same VPC.
From what I can tell, this current build is broken.
I RTFM
I read the manual... but since the SSH service wasn't started on boot it doesn't work. I ensured I had all of the proper security groups setup for SSH. I couldn't use the ec2-user user because the SSH port was filtered due to it not running.
I'd give it less stars if it was possible.
RTFM
"Usage Instructions: Once your instance is running, connect to it with your SSH private key using the "ec2-user" account."
For those who need to hear it.
Couldn't tell ya, won't allow login
Well launched it, used a security group and key I use for other stuff (so I know they are good) and can't authenticate to the machine with the user and key indicated....
Can't SSH
I ran a t2.medium instance. You can't even log into it after launching the instance. I verified my security group was setup correctly, I can see the instance screenshot is sitting at the login prompt. It just times out when I try to ssh to the instance.
t2.micro useless.loading of cpu is limited to 10%
I have a kali Linux car a t2.micro package. At execution of any problem of cpu=100 of %, but on the expiration of time several minutes of Amazon limits loading of cpu=10 of %. At the same time cpu Kali linux displays loading of cpu=99,9 of % the % ec2=9.8% console. Don't provide support on https://forums.kali.org (It is forbidden to obsuzhat Kali Linux Amazon at a forum).
Please add new instance types
I cannot upgrade my instance from m4.large to m5.large, because:
An error occurred while trying to change the instance type for this instance
The instance configuration for this AWS Marketplace product is not supported. Please see the AWS Marketplace site for more information about supported instance types, regions, and operating systems.
Great help but .....
Greet help but keep in mind that you need to request pentest before you start using any tool inside KALI.

Great Distro, Great Company
We use Kali Linux every single day in penetration tests. It's great for us to be able to spin up another instance whenever we need it. The company is great as well, they will answer any questions you have on Twitter extremely fast!
