Hello,
I’d like to know if anyone here managed to handle Windows nodes from an OS
X workstation, without going “unencrypted”?
For some background, I’ve been following the instructions
herehttp://wiki.opscode.com/display/chef/Knife+Windows+Bootstrap#KnifeWindowsBootstrap-Requirements%2FVersion
and
I’m able to use knife to reach the Windows node, as long as I use
unencrypted traffic (basic authentication + no encryption both set to true).
However if I go back to the secure defaults (AllowUnencrypted=“false” and
Basic=“false”), the connection fails with an error 401.
I suspect this may be caused by a WinRM issue on OS
Xhttps://github.com/zenchild/WinRM/issues/16 but
I’m not completely sure of that.
I thought it would work as this precise use case is mentioned on the
docshttp://wiki.opscode.com/display/chef/Knife+Windows+Bootstrap#KnifeWindowsBootstrap-Installation
.
So: did anyone manage to connect securely from OS X to Windows with Chef?
thanks for any hint!
