I'm curious -- has anyone noticed what version of Chef they're using with 
regards to these problems?  At least some of the tickets we've seen appear to 
indicate that the problems with winrm are more prevalent with Chef 11.x, 
whereas Chef 10.18.2 seems to work fine.

But in our case there's also a difference between our using Private Chef 
(based on Chef 11) versus the other site using the Open Source Chef, so we're 
not sure if maybe this is a Private Chef vs. Open Source Chef problem, or 
maybe a Chef 11.x vs. Chef 10.18.x problem, or what.


I'm also curious if people have looked at what version of knife-essentials 
they're using?  Some other problems we've seen might be related to using 
older versions of knife-essentials versus newer ones, so this is a dimension 
to the issue that we're also trying to track down.


If we can't get this problem resolved quickly, we might be forced to give up 
on Private Chef and step back to Open Source Chef.

Yes, we are working the internal channels at Opscode, but getting more 
information from the community would also be very useful.
