Isolated Linux Box

I have created an AMI that is a Linux box for purposes of testing email links and such that we aren't sure about, it has a GUI and here are the current instructions for accessing it:

  1. Start the instance (needs to be at least T2.Medium to work)
  2. SSH into the instance
  3. Type vncserver and press enter
  4. Use a VNC viewer and login with the ip address that is assigned to the server followed by :1
    1. So for example, the IP Address is 172.31.45.61, you would use 172.31.45.61:1
    2. Username is awsgui
    3. Password is be1adm1n
  5. Do what you need to
  6. Stop the server
