in the words of Jamie Hienaman (sp?) from Myth Busters... Now there's your
problem!

The client you are running the test on doesn't know what host to talk to.
In other words the host "puppet" is unknown to the client.  Try adding the
IP address of the host running your puppet master to your /etc/hosts file.

Example:

10.1.2.3       puppet
