Google is your friend.
vi is a text editor that has been around for almost ever. You'll need to google the commands for how to use it.
nano is a generally easier to use text editor. -

Now that the IP thing if fixed, try setting up the minion from scratch again.

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?

could i go in and edit it to give the minion name to the key?

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.
