Accepted Keys:
Denied Keys:
Unaccepted Keys:
Rejected Keys:There we go. Your minion has not reached out to your master yet. Nothing will work until those two are taking to each other. Is Salt definitely running on the minion and pointing to the master?

@scottalanmiller Sorry, I don't follow. I only have one VM and it's the Fedora 25 Server. It's running everything.

That's no problem. You just have to configure both sides on one machine. That's standard actually.
Look at /etc/salt/minion
add the line:
master: localhost

@scottalanmiller Thanks, I just appended it on to the end of /etc/salt/minion via Nano and restarted salt-minion service. No change though...?

The salt-key --list-all didn't list it?
-
@scottalanmiller Afraid not. I did find where to change the salt master in the /etc/salt/minion file (line 16), so I un-commented it out and changed that to master:localhost and restarted the salt-minion service again, but no change. Also tried restarting salt-master service.

Make sure that there is a space after the colon.
You can go in /var/log and look in the salt minion logs to see what it is complaining about.
-
@scottalanmiller Thanks, I have DNS lookup failures for 'salt' and master hostname 'salt' not found as a result.

Something is wrong with your minion file. That means that the minion is looking for a machine named salt rather than for localhost.
In /etc/hosts you can just name the local machine "salt" to resolve that, too.
-
"salt" is the default. so that's why that specific one shows up.
-
@scottalanmiller Perfect, thanks. I just added '127.0.0.0 salt' to my /etc/hosts file and that got the DNS issue cleared up. But then the key was still not accepted. Got that sorted by running:
salt-key -A
from directory /etc/salt -
...just CD'd back to /srv/salt and your scripts are working now!!
-
The script seemed run fine, but I still have no NextCloud installation.
I thought it was just the firewall getting enabled in Fedora, but I turned it off and still nothing is there on 443 at the IP (other than Cockpit at 9090 of course). -

-
@scottalanmiller Thanks, Scott. I ran the your final command again and it worked this time: Succeeded: 19 (changed=5)! The firewall seems to be too aggressive, so I just turned it off since this will be LAN-use only (at least for now).

Should be "just aggressive enough"... shutting off Cockpit and SSH.
-
One of the great things about a state machine system like this is that running it over and over again isn't a problem. You can run this on a live system safely.
-
Thanks again, Scott! Just one last question: how do I get this to "stick" after a reboot? It seems to be reverting back to having nothing installed after I reboot the Fedora Svr VM...

What? The packages VANISH? Or just the configuration?
-
@scottalanmiller Well, it doesn't lose my NextCloud config (I changed the admin PW) but Apache2.4, Salt (master and minion) and NextCloud are just not auto starting up. I've set the salt services to auto-start up, so I'll see if that's all it needs...
