[08:44] <beaver6675> Hi
[08:44] <beaver6675> ssh_authorized_keys is adding to /root, but disabling only one of the two keys...
[08:45] <beaver6675> ...with "echo 'Please login as the user \"centos\" rather than the user
[08:45] <beaver6675> Should it disable all the keys?
[08:46] <beaver6675> The keys are correctly added to the default user with is centos (on CentOS7 / cloud-init 0,7,5)
[08:48] <beaver6675> root seems to get a malformed authorized_key file
[08:48] <beaver6675> Line #1: no-port-forwarding...Please login as the user...<KEY1>
[08:48] <beaver6675> Line #2: <KEY2>
[08:49] <beaver6675> Should the lines get the "no-port-forwarding...Please login as the user..." prefix?
[08:50] <beaver6675> I meant: Shouldn't all the lines...
[08:55] <Wulf> beaver6675: why would you need disabled keys at all?
[09:00] <beaver6675> The authorized_keys are meant for the centos/cloud-user default user
[09:01] <beaver6675> but cloud-init seems to copy the keys to root anyway...
[09:01] <beaver6675> and disables the login using the prefix command...
[09:02] <beaver6675> but it only added the prefix commant to one of the keys...
[09:02] <beaver6675> ...so it happened that the second key could be used to login to the root user...
[09:03] <beaver6675> To be clearer: all the ssh_authorized_keys were added correctly to the default user...
[09:03] <beaver6675> however the keys were also copied to the root user, and supposedly disabled with with a prefix command
[09:04] <beaver6675> which echoed the message Please login as user centos instead of user root
[09:04] <beaver6675> However one of the keys copied to /root/.ssh/authorized_keys was not disabled with this technique
[09:06] <Wulf> beaver6675: I think that the keys should not be copied to the root user.
[09:52] <beaver6675> Seems to be a bug...the key was an ECDSA key so the prefix was not prepended...
[09:52] <beaver6675> With two DSA keys, /root/,ssh/authorized looks correct now.
[21:34] <bechampion> hey all
[21:34] <bechampion> im struggling hard with an issue
[21:34] <bechampion> im putting a dumb script on user-data on ec2 , something like " #!/bin/bash touch /tmp/test"
[21:35] <bechampion> but it seems to run it only sometimes
[21:35] <bechampion> im sure im missing something about how to "sysprep" a default ami
[21:48] <bechampion> im using a custom ami (that came from a 14.04 ami ) but im reading that there's some stuff that i have to remove
[22:40] <smoser> bechampion, you shouldn't have to remove anything.
[22:41] <smoser> but it will only run once "per-instance" by default.
[22:41] <smoser> you can change that to run "always" (every boot). but normally thats probalby not what you want.
[23:02] <bechampion> thanks , is it ran by root?
[23:02] <bechampion> cause im running an s3cmd but it doesn;t log out nothing ...
