-SSL validation of HTTPS requests is disabled. HTTPS connections are still
-encrypted, but chef is not able to detect forged replies or man in the middle
-attacks.
-
-To fix this issue add an entry like this to your configuration file:
-
-```
-  # Verify all HTTPS connections (recommended)
-  ssl_verify_mode :verify_peer
-
-  # OR, Verify only connections to chef-server
-  verify_api_cert true
-```
-
-To check your SSL configuration, or troubleshoot errors, you can use the
-`knife ssl check` command like so:
-
-```
-  knife ssl check -c #{Chef::Config.config_file}
-```
