[Puppet Users] Solaris Certificate Problems

Hello,

Have a fully working setup with mostly Linux clients running on a 2.7.x
master all is good.

Trying to join Solaris clients to this master yields:-
info: Creating a new SSL key for <FQDN>
warning: peer certificate won't be verified in this SSL session
info: Caching certificate for ca
warning: peer certificate won't be verified in this SSL session
warning: peer certificate won't be verified in this SSL session
info: Creating a new SSL certificate request for <FQDN>
info: Certificate Request fingerprint (md5):
7D:9C:6E:49:BB:19:06:F8:4C:4D:78:1D:C1:EF:0F:84
warning: peer certificate won't be verified in this SSL session
debug: Using cached certificate for ca
warning: peer certificate won't be verified in this SSL session
err: Could not request certificate: time out of range

NTP is running fine on both machines and the time is in sync.

# date

This is on the client which is the same as all the rest of the Linux
clients.
# openssl x509 -text -in /etc/puppet/ssl/certs/ca.pem
Certificate:
Data:
Version: 3 (0x2)
Serial Number: 1 (0x1)
Signature Algorithm: sha1WithRSAEncryption
Issuer: CN=Puppet CA: <PUPPETMASTER-FQDN>
Validity
Not Before: Dec 28 11:11:33 2011 GMT
Not After : Dec 27 11:11:33 2016 GMT
Subject: CN=Puppet CA: <PUPPETMASTER-FQDN>

These are using the OpenCSW Solaris packages.

I cannot work out why this is happening.

master logs show:-
Could not find certificate for '<FQDN>'
Could not find certificate_request for '<FQDN>'
<FQDN> has a waiting certificate request
Signed certificate request for <FQDN>
Removing file Puppet::SSL::CertificateRequest <FQDN> at
'/etc/puppet/ssl/ca/requests/<FQDN>.pem'

I am really stumped now. Any ideas what it could be, anything else to check
?

Thanks
Paul
