Amazon ECS-Optimized Amazon Linux 2 (AL2) arm64 AMI

this is the older one. I know it doesnt make sense. Trust me AL2023 is newer even when it appears as last updated in the AMI list.

great, it started. but i am unable to manage. how can i manage this without ssh access. using connect i get a shell, great!!, but... then what are the credentials? pretty much paying for a box to sit there until i figure this out.
