title: Using RDP bastion host to access Linux
body: <p>I need to set up an AWS VPC with multiple servers in private subnets, a mix of Windows and RHEL</p>
  
  <p>The bastion host is likely to be an RDP server in a separate management VPC linked via VPC peering</p>
  
  <p>Is it bad practice to use the RDP box to SSH into the Linux servers via Putty, providing we don't store the private keys on the RDP bastion and use SSH agent forwarding via Paegent or similar? Or is that a common and acceptable use case?</p>
