The puppetca and puppetd tools are deprecated, no? Also, my client machines
do not have the puppet master program installed. I also do not believe it
reasonable for me, the end user of puppet, to be forced to be so hands-on
with puppet's ssl certificates. I am led to understand that some individuals
run their own CA but, in my case, I let puppet generate everything and the
puppet tooling _should_ be clever enough to manage its certificates but,
given the volume of ssl questions and errors on this mailing list, is not.
