[chef] Re: remove a chef-client

[Miquel Torres < >]

Hi,

yeah, we have the same problem. It is dependent on you packaging
system though. In Debian you need to:

* stop the chef-client service
* remove the chef logrotate entry (that restarts it weekly)
* Remove from run level so that it doesn't get started after a reboot

We have a recipe with the name kill_chef_client that does all that.
But it is not enough because every time the Chef package is upgraded
all that will come back!
