<p>Any help or hint would greatly appreciated.
I am using Windows 11 Professional.</p>
<p>I am connect to AWS and when I type the command &quot;kops&quot; I get the below error message.</p>
<p>[ec2-user@ip-172-31-10-126 ~]$ curl -Lo kops https://github.com/kubernetes/kops/releases/download/$(curl -s <a href="https://api.github.com/repos/kubernetes/kops/releases/latest" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://api.github.com/repos/kubernetes/kops/releases/latest</a> | grep tag_name | cut -d '&quot;' -f 4)/kops-darwin-amd64</p>

<p>You're only using Windows 11 as a ssh client - it's not doing anything for Kubernetes.</p>
<p>As @jordanm indicates you're trying to download the MacOS version.  Change your command to:</p>
<pre><code>curl -Lo kops https://github.com/kubernetes/kops/releases/download/$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/kubernetes/kops/releases/latest | grep tag_name | cut -d '&quot;' -f 4)/kops-linux-amd64
</code></pre>
<p>to get the Linux version</p>
