If I run my build server in a public subnet AND if the Packer template uses
the Public IP of my build server this works - However this is not a setup I
can use.
Ideally I would like both my build instance and the temporary instance to
be in private subnets. At the least I need my build server to remain in a
private subnet - which means that the Packer template is going to need to
use the private IP of my build server to communicate with the temporary
instance. I hope there is a way to specify this.
