[chef] Re: Registering chef client with a server

Josh Timberman's blog is another gold mine for information - http://jtimberman.housepub.org/. You can refer to that one also for guidance on Chef v11.

Thanks and Regards

Please try this blog - http://www.linuxguy.in/how-to-install-and-configure-open-source-chef-server-11/

This one has the correct and updated instructions which I followed and was able to configure Open Source Chef Server and Client using v11.x on RHEL 5.7.

The hostnames are entered differently with https and no ref to port in v11.x

Thanks and Regards

Hello,

I am trying unsuccessfully to register/configure a chef client with Open Source chef server. It should be simple but I find the available documentation outdated or to be missing important information.  It looks like it is focused on the hosted chef only. I am stuck on this step which I thought would be the simplest part of the installation and configuration.

Could someone share his/her experience with setting up an Open Source server and clients? Is there are a guide or tutorial on it? Maybe I missed it.

I am using ver 11.4.0 for both client and server on RHEL 5..6.

Thanks,

Dimitar
