Lamont,

omnibus

>If you install 11.6 with omnibus (and validate that ls -la `which knife` is a symlink to omnibus) does it fix it?
:/opt/chef/chef-repo/.chef# ls -la `which knife`

Hi all,

I am having some trouble getting anything on my Ubuntu box to connect to my hosted chef server. What I am trying to do (I think) is to set up a workstation and/or a chef client on this same machine (which, I guess is ok?). One example that produces the failure is 'knife client list' which returns:

:/opt/chef/chef-repo# knife client list
ERROR: Errno::ECONNRESET: Connection reset by peer - SSL_connect

Does this happen consistently?

Can you re-run this with `-VV` ?
