Salt Stack communication issues

I don't see anywhere where you put salt into the /etc/hosts file of the minion, or put it into DNS. Is that maybe the issue?

I did. I can also ping salt from the minion and get a response from the master.

Nothing shows up using this command on the master: salt-key -L

Did you open the right ports on the master?

Did you verify that master's process is running?

negative. Just this:


[root@salt ~]# salt-key -L
Accepted Keys:
Denied Keys:
Unaccepted Keys:
salt
Rejected Keys:

The unaccepted key salt of course is the master itself.

I opened ports 4505 and 4506/tcp by issuing:

firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-port=4505-4506/tcp
firewall-cmd --reload

I opened ports 4505 and 4506/tcp by issuing:
firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-port=4505-4506/tcp
firewall-cmd --reload

And public is definitely the right zone?

FacePalm. There was only 1 zone listed on the firewall, and it was called FedoraServer. Opening the ports in this zone of course solved the issue.

I was wondering as FedoraServer is the default.

@fuznutz04 You ran into this "problem" because you used the netinstall iso.
With the DVD iso FedoraServer is the default.

Learn something new every day. I'm so used to CentOS, so I'm not used to the differences with Fedora.

Thanks!
