5. http://zanshin.net/2014/03/04/how-i-setup-my-chef-workstation/ A knife.rb file is used to specify the chef-repo-specific configuration details for knife. knife searches for .chef in: (a) ./.chef (current directory contains .chef) (b) ~/.chef (homedir contains .chef) (c) parent directories (e.g. ./.. then ./../.. all the way back to /)

   Put knife.rb,validator.pem,client.pem in one of the above directories. In hosted chef: https://docs.chef.io/server_manage_clients.html Download starter kit and it has .chef directory which should be copied to the desired location.
