Hi, certification can be painful at times, but I don't see the real problem you had with requesting a signature on a badly named cert? You can always just revoke it on the master and have your client issue a new CSR. Regards, Felix -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Puppet Users group.

Hello, Thanks for your response, my point was more that if puppet relied on querying the FQDN for the box, it would request the right cert all the time.
