Hi Guys!

The certificat of the client itself is not used for communication to 
puppet-master. Agent use for this its private key that can be schared 
between your immutable PXE hosts. You cat just rename (m.b. in rc.local) 
this private key during machine startup to correspond to new hostname of 
server and than start puppet-agent service. In this case puppet agent will 
use this shared private key. Old servers will continue to communicate with 
the master as if nothing had happened after a reboot. New servers will 
receive a new certificate.  But each certificate will correspond to a 
single private key. Although they will have different Canonical Name (CN == 
hostname).
