      @scottalanmiller OK i said i followed your instructions, yes. because i did the first time. thats what I put when i was doing the install, at that point, thats what i put in the box

      Are you sure you did that on the right box? I don't see any echo command in the command history.

          and this is what i get

          What this command means is, insert 192.168.1.92 into the end of the file /etc/hosts'. Every time you run it it will just append whatever you have in quotations into the file.

          Also remember to first check if that ip is really the ip of the salt master.

          That one is, in the source, it was not. I modified it when I put it here.

            How do i find the IP address of the master?

            I tried and ifconfig command and it didnt work.

            is it supposed to my person ip?

              ifconfig is the command from the olden days (like many months ago), the current command is...

              ip addr

                The ip of your salt master.

                        Try to post the results your commands, this way its easier for everyone to troubleshoot.

                                  @WrCombs you forgot to add the hostname after the ip address when appending to the hosts file. That is why both 192.168.1.97 and .94 dont have one, we have to fix this before moving on.

                                  # You ran
                                  echo "192.168.1.94" >> /etc/hosts
                                  
                                  #Should've been
                                  echo "192.168.1.94 salt" >> /etc/hosts
                                  

                                  We are going to have to edit the file and add the hostname

                                            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.
