[chef] Re: chef basics after installation: validation.pem and webui.pem

[Jesse Campbell < >]

You will need to open up some ports on the server, defaults I think
are 4040 and 4000 (but I'm not positive)

The webui.pem and validation.pem should be in /etc/chef on the chef
server. What do you have in there now?
