Unable to ssh from VM host to itself
Hello all,
I'm getting an error message in the install phase of VCL when I try to
configure my VM host to be able to ssh to itself. I type the command on the
management node (My current VCL installation is all on one desktop);
*ssh-copy-id –i /etc/vcl/vcl.key.pub localvmhost*
I receive this error message each time;
*ssh: \342\200\223i: Name or service not known*
Not sure what exactly those numbers mean nor am I really getting much from
google with this problem. I was hoping someone can show me where I should
began troubleshooting...

I haven't gone through those instructions myself. They appear to be
quite dated -- VCL 2.1 and VMware 1.x. Some of the steps included are
no longer necessary.
The instructions on the page I referenced were written for VCL 2.2 or
2.2.1 and VMware Server 2.x.

This documentation looks a bit different from the VMware install I did. I've
been following these instructions to set up VCL on a single machine. Will
these instructions suffice in order for VCL to work correctly on a stand
alone?

I think I have fixed the problem, not sure what I did but I'm no longer
getting that error message (maybe rebooting the machine was all it took).
Also, where can I find the documentation for Configuring a Standalone VCL
Environment using VMware Server 2.0?

I haven't seen this before but I'm guessing localvmhost hasn't been
added to /etc/hosts. Whenever you see 'Name or service not known' it
means hostname resolution failed.
If you were trying to follow the "Configuring a Standalone VCL
Environment using VMware Server 2.0" then I think I figured out the
problem. I had reworked the page and the step to configure /etc/hosts
was placed after the "Configure The VM Host To Be Able To SSH To Itself"
step. Sorry about that. I changed the order on that page.
