Puppet users - Jun 2009 - SOLVED: problems with puppetd on some of my solaris machines

Apparently I wasn''t generating new client certs/private_keys correctly
somehow.

I''ve attempted to capture that knowledge in a shell script, so that  
part of the procedure is repeatable/consistent/correct...

Apologies for the noise to the list... :-(

------------

I am having troubles with getting puppetd running on some of my  
Solaris10 update 7 (05/2009) boxes.

I use Jumpstart to build my servers, so the installation is  
repeatable, consistent, and automated, so it is especially confusing  
that some boxes work, and others don''t.

I can ssh into both of these machines, so the host certs should be OK.

As part of my installation, I download the ca.pem file for the  
puppetmaster, and the private key for the machine.

The private keys were generated on the puppetmaster machine, which runs
puppetversion => 0.24.4 on OpenBSD.

Any ideas about what I am doing wrong, and/or things I could do to  
debug this problem?

Thanks,

Don
