He learned the HARDWAY how not to setup your masternode. I will be putting together a list of things to check and an ISO and AMI for people to use with MOST of the issue addressed, you will still be responsible for checking any think I missed and verify it works for your setup.
I would like to request for no AMI images. There are already too many Amazon servers (over 50%) and I believe having a readily available image will just encourage more centralization! Just do ISO's, please!
Amazon already has the firewall locked down.
Root login without a .pem key is disabled.
Just the .pem key alone would of saved him.
This just shows though, that you absolutely need to be running a remote and local set up.
I don't disagree at all, it definitely would have saved him. I am requesting this because we are overly reliant on a US company's network to host our decentralized currency. Making an AMI just encourages everyone to make more MN on Amazon servers. They would probably be more secure for the noobs, but if they must do this then they can follow chaeplin's guide relatively easily.
If they want to further centralize MN hosting at least make them do the work.
