If this is a new node being created through some sort of automation
procedure (kickstart, etc..) I'd look into generating your certs.  You
can then, as part of the procedure, simply copy them to your puppet
client & server.  This is how we do it within kickstart, which was
actually pretty easy to setup.

Regards,
Bill
