mxscho's questions

I just downloaded and installed Hyper-V Server 2019 from Microsoft Evaluation Center (version: 1809/10.0.17763.1). Now I'm not able to connect to this machine (which I named hypervserver) using remote desktop.

Routing seems to be fine and pinging works as well, but the RDP port is not reachable:

>$ ping hypervserver
Reply from {IP}: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128
[...]
>$ telnet hypervserver 3389
Connecting To {IP}...Could not open connection to the host, on port 3389: Connect failed

No changes even after disabling firewalls and setting the network category of the used network profiles to Private.

I can see that I successfully enabled RDP, because sconfig.cmd says:

4) Configure Remote Management: Enabled
7) Remote Desktop: Enabled (all clients)

Registry keys look good as well:

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\fDenyTSConnection = 0
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\RDP-Tcp\fEnableWinStation = 1
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\RDP-Tcp\PortNumber = 3389

Service seems to be running:

PS >$ Get-Service -Name termservice -ComputerName hypervserver
Status  Name        DisplayName
------  ----        -----------
Running termservice Remote Desktop Services

However, noone seems to be listening on port 3389:

>$ netstat -ano | findstr LISTEN | findstr :3389
>$

I have a standard setup with an ordinary (and single) ethernet network interface configured to get its IP using DHCP. Neither rebooting nor restarting the service has helped. Event log does not contain any errors.

What else could be the problem? Shouldn't this work out of the box?

What is the current way of installing Docker on an AWS EC2 instance running the AMI? There has been an announcement of Docker Enterprise Edition and now I want to know if anything has changed. Until now, I have been using yum install docker and do get a Docker versioned at 1.12.6, build 7392c3b/1.12.6 right now (3/3/2017). However, the Docker repository on GitHub tells me that there are already newer releases.

I remember the official Docker (package) repository having a package named docker-engine replacing docker some time ago and now they seem to split the package up into docker-ce and docker-ee, where e.g. "Docker Community Edition (Docker CE) is not supported on Red Hat Enterprise Linux." [Source]

So is or will it still be correct to use the above to get the latest stable Docker version on EC2 instances running the AMI or do I need to pull the package from somewhere else (and if so which one, CE or EE)?
