Connection closed
Upon launching an F5 BIG-IP VE AMI on EC2 (I'm using the 25Mbps trial edition), I notice that I can establish SSH connection to the instance (as well as HTTPS connection), but can't log in at all.
Trying key-based login with the key pair provided by Amazon, I'm getting a "Connection closed by " error message.
Not necessarily looking for an instant answer as to what's wrong (although that would be welcome); but what bothers me most is that I have no idea how to even go about troubleshooting this.
Accessing via HTTPS, I can see the login prompt. Obviously I can't login though because I don't know what the admin password is (I read that I should SSH into the instance in order to reset the admin password).
Any ideas?
