I've found that there are three major pieces that can be going wrong in this case: 1) Getting the ca.pem file to the client. 2) Getting the Certificate sign request to the server. 3) Getting the signed certificate to the client.
Test them like this: To test 1) Grab /var/lib/puppet/ssl/ca.pem from a working client and put it on the client that doesn't work. To test 2) Check if you see the client's name when you run "puppetca --list --all" on the server. If not, try using "sudo puppetca --generate hostname.domainname" on the server.
