[chef] HELP! I think that I really messed up Chef configuration :(!!

[o haya < >]

Hi,

I originally had the following configuration:

Chef Server (CENTOS 6.6)
Chef Workstation (Windows 2008 w/ChefDK installed)
Test AD (Windows 2008)
Test Nodes (Windows 2008)
..
..

I (probably stupidly) decided that I want to put the Chef Workstation on the 
Test AD machine.  I'll try to describe what I've done, but things are so 
messed up at this point, I'm not sure exactly what's going on or what I did.

So, I ran the ChefDK installer on the AD machine.  Then, I think I got the 
quickstart ZIP from the Chef server, and I unzipped in in the chef-repo 
directory on the AD machine.

After that, basically nothing worked.

The first thing I ran into was that the Chef-client (the nodes) could not 
register anymore, getting 401 errors when i try to run chef-client on them.

So then, I thought I should try to re-bootstrap the nodes but I can't seem to 
get the knife-windows to work on the new Chef workstation.

I run "chef gem install knife-windows" in the chef-repo directory, but then 
when I try to run "knife bootstrap windows winrm <IP>" it says that the host 
I'm trying to bootstrap is "windows".

I think that I have some OVAs that I backed up from earlier, so I'm going to 
try to see if I can restore them, but can anyone tell me or point me to what 
went wrong?  Is there just no way to "move" the Chef Workstation or make a 
2nd instance once it's installed?  It seems like all the pieces (the nodes, 
the Chef server and the workstation) are permanently linked together?

Thanks,
Jim
