I just wanted to say THANK YOU SO MUCH for this guide - I had been working with pivpn and had everything in place to set it up, but it was not still not working on my rp4. I was getting into the weeds with network configuration and firewall problems. Having a working VPN server is cool - but it was diving into AWS EC2 instances with this exercise that really made my day. Thank you for doing such a great job in breaking everything down!
After working with it for a moment and realizing that it's been well over a year since I signed up for AWS, I'm wondering what configuration steps should be taken to keep costs down. I set up the budget warning tools and I guess I will see in a few days how much cpu credits are being used. The pricing system seems like it could catch up with you pretty quick if you set an instance up wrong and it tried to chew up resources.
