Howdy!

I might suggest starting here:

http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/1/wiki/certificates_and_security


It talks a little about setting up a seperate CA - this is pretty commonly done for HA environments.

As far as pre-generating the client certs without Puppet, I'd have a look at ssl/host.rb in the source tree to see how it does it. It has all the logic puppet certificate --generate uses (It seems to call generate_certificate_request), and then the logic --sign uses which calls ca.sign. If you look through that code I'm sure you can figure out the right options to pass openssl to do it.
