keys has been accepted
Try running
salt '*' test.ping
The minions name seems wrong, it should be the hostname of the machine. Didn't pay attention to that when we accepted the key.
the minions name is what i set it to. following mr. scotts instructions on the thread
-
I set the minion's name when I created the VM.
-
Key might have been accepted too fast, that's not a healthy minion name.

I set the minion's name when I created the VM.
So i didnt set the name, because it was already set..
What do we need to Fix this now?Should i forget and reaccept the key? is that possible?

No, the key with the minion's name never appeared.
-
@scottalanmiller what is it gonna take to fix it?
Do I have to go into and redo it?

I think so. Don't accept any corrupt keys. Wait for a good key to be requested.
I don't know where those weird ip locals come from, but they won't work.
-
My minion is also not sending its key to the master. This is strange.

@WrCombs if all is working properly it should be its hostname.

Use the command hostname to see it. But it's a very normal name. It's the same name you type in to connect to it.
-
yeahh not working
"the glob" " does not match any unaccepted keys
-
@scottalanmiller when i sure hostname: i get lab-lnx-william-osticket
i use that to do the command in the first line and i get an error message

You can't try to accept a key that hasn't shown up yet. You need to look for it, first.
-
What key HAS shown up?
-
@scottalanmiller this one that i accepted
-
Why is the bad key still there?
-
@scottalanmiller the bad key i accepted? how do i unnaccept a key?
-
You've not done the first step yet, which is removing the blocking key. So that is going to keep things from working.
