In Ubuntu we would like to work on better integration of puppet as you

be able to expand the CSR to be able to accept more information. In
short what we want to do is to be able to generate a token or a
certificate that can be passed to the on demand generated image so
that
the puppet client can be autenticated to the server without human
interaction.
I will like to get some advice or ideas from you on how can this be
addressed, or if you have a better idea on how to do that.
Can the CSR contain arbitrary information?
If so, the whole thing should be relatively easy - just look at the
code in lib/puppet/ssl/, probably certificate_request.rb; we're using
the plain SSL interface.
