Hi all!
I am setting up a local Chef environment to learn Chef.
I have a Ubuntu 12.04 chef server, a Ubuntu 12.04 node and a Windows 2008
node. All virtual in VMWare Fusion.
My client is a Mac where also Fusion is installed.
Server is working. Client is working. Bootstrapping the Windows node works
fine.
Problem is bootstrapping the Ubuntu node.
I use knife bootstrap -x -P
–sudo --use-sudo-password -V
The only response i get is "Bootstrapping Chef on ". Nothing
else.
Running top on the node doesn’t tell me anything.
Protocol analyzer tells me there is an SSH key exchange, then the node does
a DNS lookup for my client which obviously ends in a "no such name"
from the DNS server.
Does my client need to be resolvable for the bootstrap to work?
Can someone point me to a troubleshooting guide for this issue?
Thanks,
Ton.

Likely ssh server doesn't work at the client.
Check if simple ssh <linux node ip>
works from you machine.

Hi all!
Solved online using IRC. I was using -u (API user) instead of -x (SSH user).
All fixed now.
Ton.
