Hi,

I have a requirement where I need to build a Windows AMI in AWS and as per 
CIS recommendations, I need to rename the default windows Administrator 
username. I have multiple powershell provisioners in my build template and 
in one of the provisioners, I am changing the default windows Administrator 
username. I also have a requirement that I need to run provisioners after 
changing the default windows Administrator username. I am using winrm to 
connect to the EC2 machine and from the start, I am using the default 
windows Administrator username to connect.

After I change the default windows Administrator username, I need to 
somehow change the username to the new one. I was trying to use 
https://www.packer.io/docs/templates/provisioners.html#build-specific-overrides 
to override the "winrm_username" parameter, but that does not seem to work. 
Error: "* unknown configuration key: "winrm_username"". Same with any other 
configuration key that I use.

Please suggest if there is any other way to meet my requirements.
