Chef running from the outside

is there a way to provision a server with Chef without having Ruby installed on the server that is going to be provisioned?

Basically in the same way that Capistrano is used to provision a server?

thx

ciao robertj

You can use the Chef Omnibus Installer to install a native package for your OS including Chef Client and needed Ruby runtime packaged into one - but Ruby is always needed to be installed.

Currently Chef is not able to remotely provision a server via ssh orso.
