Hello,

How do I download and install ignition to a remote server using SSH?

I tried Command-line Installation as laid out here: [https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC/Installing+Ignition+on+Linux](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC/Installing+Ignition+on+Linux)

However, connection keeps timing out at first line:  
"wget [http://archive.inductiveautomation.com/ia.public.key](http://archive.inductiveautomation.com/ia.public.key)

Thanks.

+1 million for this tutorial!! Should be in the user manual.

Installed very quickly on an AWS Lightsail Django server using this guide. The only extra step required was opening up port 8088 in the Lightsail firewall.
