Silly little chef lab setup using Vagrant

Install everything you need for OS X via Homebrew

brew cask install virtualbox
brew cask install vagrant
brew cask install chefdk

Install Vagrant plugins:

vagrant plugin install vagrant-omnibus
vagrant plugin install vagrant-chef-zero
vagrant plugin install vagrant-berkshelf
vagrant plugin install vagrant-hostmanager

Clone this repo and vagrant up:

mkdir -p ~/vagrant_stuff
cd !$
git clone git@github.com:kholloway/cheflab.git
cd cheflab
vagrant up

You can now vagrant ssh to your instance and start playing around with Chef.

This setup installs the Chef base RPM along with the ChefDK RPM for CentOS/RHEL and any other packages you specify in the Vagrantfile

Fix for Virtualbox networking error

If you get an error message like the one below:

A host only network interface you're attempting to configure via DHCP
already has a conflicting host only adapter with DHCP enabled.

Then run the command below list and then remove your host interfaces, ideally you should remove all of them. I ended up with one that looks like this:

NetworkName:    HostInterfaceNetworking-vboxnet0
IP:             172.28.128.2
NetworkMask:    255.255.255.0
lowerIPAddress: 172.28.128.3
upperIPAddress: 172.28.128.254
Enabled:        Yes

After that do a vagrant destroy followed by a vagrant up to get things working again.
