How To Create New User in Ec2 Instance and Connect Using Putty

The document provides steps to create a new user named "shyam" on an EC2 instance, generate an SSH key pair for that user, and configure SSH access so that user can connect to the instance from their local machine using Putty. Key steps include: using 'adduser' and 'passwd' to create the new user and set password, generating an SSH key pair with 'ssh-keygen', adding the public key to the user's authorized keys, copying the private key locally, and connecting via SSH with the -i flag to specify the private key file. Troubleshooting tips are provided for permission denied errors, like uncommenting PasswordAuthentication in sshd_config.
