Jon, what version of Puppet are you running?
I can't seem to find a doc on this that isn't release notes, so we
should probably get a documentation bug in.
You can set 'dns_alt_names' either in your puppet.conf or on the
command line when the node generates a CSR.
Then you can use "allow-dns-alt-names" when signing the certificate on
the CA to approve those alt names.
Alternatively, you can use "puppet certificate generate" on the CA and
manually transmit the certificate/key to the node.
$ puppet help certificate sign
