How to give Internet Access to a Private Subnet non Public IP EC2 instance without NAT Instance.


In some cases we couldn't use public ip address not even an elastic ip for your ec2 instance , for example PCI audit related situations. But you should give internet access to your ec2 app servers to sent notification or alert mails to outside. In that case you can use the NAT Gateway for doing this.

1. First Create a NAT gateway in VPC section.

         While creating the NAT Gateway, you should give the subnet as the Public Subnet having route table target as an "Internet Gateway".

2. Now edit your route table associated with your private EC2's subnet and make the target as "Nat gateway ID"

That is all , now you will get internet access to your private EC2 instance, without public ip or elastic ip and having only Private ip in the instance description session.

Password reset too simplistic/systematic issue

Some time when we try to reset the password of our user in linux it will show as simple and systematic as below: BAD PASSWORD: it is too simplistic/systematic no matter how hard password you give it will show the same. Solution: ######### Check if your password is Ok with the below command, jino@ndz~$ echo 'D7y8HK#56r89lj&8*&^%&^%#56rlKJ!789l' | cracklib-check D7y8HK#56r89lj&8*&^%&^%#56rlKJ!789l: it is too simplistic/systematic Now Create a password with the below command : jino@ndz~$ echo $(tr -dc '[:graph:]' 7\xi%!W[y*S}g-H7W~gbEB4cv,9:E:K; You can see that this password will be ok with the cracklib-check. jino@ndz~$ echo '7\xi%!W[y*S}g-H7W~gbEB4cv,9:E:K;' | cracklib-check                 7\xi%!W[y*S}g-H7W~gbEB4cv,9:E:K;: OK Thats all, Thanks.

Setting /etc/hosts entries during the initial deployment of an Application using k8s yaml file

Some times we have to enter specific hosts file entries to the container running inside the POD of a kubernetes deployment during the initial deployment stage itself. If these entries are not in place, the application env variables mentioned in the yaml file , as hostnames , will not resolve to the IP address and the application will not start properly. So to make sure the /etc/hosts file entries are already there after the spin up of the POD you can add the below entries in your yaml file. cat > api-deployment.yaml apiVersion: apps/v1 kind: Deployment metadata: spec:   template:     metadata:     spec:       volumes:       containers:       - image: registryserver.jinojoseph.com:5000/jinojosephimage:v1.13         lifecycle:           postStart:             exec:               command:...
