Add the possibility of building NAT instance images on the fly #15

I don't feel comfortable using pre-built images, as they could in theory be tampered with.

Would be great to be able to use a standard Amazon Linux image, and then do the setup through user scripts.

There are currently two supported options for this:

  1. You can build your own AMI using Packer. make all-amis will build an AMI and publish it to your account
  2. If you don't want to build an AMI at all, there is an rpm available in the releases which you can install yourself.

Docs for this are available in the following locations:

Resolving. Let me know if you have any other questions!

Thanks, Andrew!

RPM sounds like good middle ground.
