I'm using centos7 as a master for the first time, and ubuntu 14.04 minions. 

Both have version 2016.3.0

I can't get the minion to connect to the master.

I've opened ports 4505-4506 on the master, shown by this command

firewall-cmd --zone=public --list-ports
4505-4506/tcp

when I restart the minion, salt-key -L on the master still shows nothing.

When I run salt-minion -l debug, I get this.

[DEBUG   ] Reading configuration from /etc/salt/minion
[DEBUG   ] Configuration file path: /etc/salt/minion
[WARNING ] Insecure logging configuration detected! Sensitive data may be logged.
