Hello Sunday Joseph,

Thanks for your question.

If you are using an Azure VM:

Go to the Azure portal and go to your Virtual Machine.

Select Reset password and update the password

This will reset the password for the specified user, allowing you to log in with the new credentials.

HiSunday Joseph,

Thank you for reaching out to us on the Microsoft Q&A forum.

1. Activate a new sandbox and create a new VM as mentioned in the Exercise (step1 at Create a Linux VM and install Nginx).

2. After step 1, please make a note of Public IP address that was assigned to VM.

Before moving into step2, connect to the newly created VM using ssh command in cloud shell. Please run the following command to connect VM:

ssh azureuser@<VM public ip address>

nginx1

4. The system gives you to prompt Yes/No. Enter Yes.

5. Please run the following commands one after another in cloud shell.

· sudo apt-get update

· sudo apt-get install -y nginx

· echo "<html><body><h2>Welcome to Azure! My name is $(hostname).</h2></body></html>" | sudo tee -a /var/www/html/index.html.

nginx2

. Exit

After completing the step 5, continue your module from step2 of Task 1: Create a Linux virtual machine and install Nginx at module 3 of 14.
