    Hi Jeramie Rentfrow,

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

    Apologies for the inconvenience. Let's address your issue step by step:

    1. Public Address Observation: After completing step 1, you should see a public address similar to this: 40.112.149.7, confirming that the first step was successful.
    2. Proceed to Step 2: Next, copy the public IP address and move on to step 2.

    1. SSH Command Execution: After completing step 2, enter the following command in your terminal or command prompt: ssh azureuser@<VM public IP address> (e.g., ssh azureuser@40.112.149.7). When prompted with a message asking if you want to continue connecting, type "yes" (without quotes) and press Enter to proceed.

    Cloud Shell Commands: Once connected via SSH, run the following commands sequentially in your 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
