What AMI operating system are you using?
If you are using Amazon Linux 2023, you cannot use the EPEL repository.
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/linux/al2023/ug/compare-with-al2.html#epel
Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) is a project in the Fedora community with the objective of creating a large array of packages for enterprise-level Linux operating systems. The project has primarily produced RHEL and CentOS packages. Amazon Linux 2 features a high level of compatibility with CentOS 7. As a result, many EPEL7 packages work on Amazon Linux 2. However, AL2023 doesn't support EPEL or EPEL-like repositories.
EPEL is a third-party, community-driven repository targeting EL distros (RHEL, and its clones or hybrids). But starting with AL2023, AL is an independent distro that uses multiple upstreams. It's not directly compatible with RHEL, and therefore EPEL packages are unlikely to work with it.

Indeed, my EC2 instance is running
Amazon Linux 2023
. What can I do to set up dynamic DNS usingnoip
on my Amazon Linux instance? Can I replaceAmazon Linux 2023
withAmazon Linux 2
in an existing instance?Existing Amazon Linux 2023 cannot be changed to Amazon Linux 2. If you want to change it, you need to create a new EC2 from an Amazon Linux 2 AMI.
Running noip on Amazon Linux 2023 can be difficult. I searched the official documentation, but could only find installation instructions based on Debian. https://www.noip.com/support/knowledgebase/installing-the-linux-dynamic-update-client-on-ubuntu
