Hi All,
I am learning Chef and I am writing my first Cookbook.
I am having an issue that I described here:
in which Chef basically can't find a cookbook I reference in my berkshelf
file. (I reference others and they work).
The point is: I am referencing an iptables cookbook in an windows
environment for testing purposes. I expect it to fail, but I expect it to
fail because iptables is not present and not because it can't find the
cookbook.
I would like to know how the supports settings work: will it prevent the
cookbook from being used in an environment which is not supported? Could it
be the reason for the error I am getting?

"supports" in metadata is informational only and doesn't cause the
client to do anything different.
