Hi

I've installed puppet and made autosigning work like a charm (EPEL
version 0.25-5 for EL4 and EL5)

What I would like to do know is to setup the environment in order to
achieve:

As server can be reinstalled and a new CA created, clients should
either expire, or accept any cert while using autosigning.


I've tested so far:

- puppetmaster machine can be reinstalled so a new CA will be created
by default
- If the server ca is recreated, clients stop connecting because of
certificate verification failure
- clients should be able to connect to that server, so I've tried
making CA and host cets expire faster with no luck
- I need to setup ca_ttl > 3 days because if not, created pem will
have "not valid after" before current date/time
- After creating CA with expiration +25 years, and host with 3 days,
if I change host date, can't get a new certificate from server.

As workarrounds I've considered packaging ca certificates with my
config distribution, so all servers, even when reinstalled will share
same CA, but I find more clean to just regenerate certificates on
daily basis automatically.

¿How should I setup this?
