[chef] Re: Re: Fail to connect to chef server when using vagrant

[Knox Lively < >]

That was it, thanks again.  I do have one more question though.  We have two 
completely separate chef environments for each of our products.  I ran berks 
configure which indeed wrote config.json which allowed me to complete the 
handshake.  However, that json document has information particular to only 
one of the environments we run in, is there some sort of ‘vm’ solution for 
berksfile that would allow switching between environments?
