Subject: Old cfengine client, new localhost.priv localhost.pub keys (Nova)

We have bandwidth measurement test servers that are built from clones. These 
servers are not backed up (however, given the problem I'm about to describe, 
we'll be backing up /var/cfengine/ppkeys in the very near future).

Recently we lost a disk on one of the servers, and new clone disk was 
immediately put into service.  Unfortunately, the cfengine private key 
(/var/cfengine/ppkeys/localhost.priv) was lost.  So, we could not initiate a 
trust relationship with the policy server based upon the old key pairs.  

The easiest solution is to re-boostrap the client to the policy server, which 
has been done.  However, what would be the best way of removing the old public 
keys for the client from the policy and distribution servers?

Thanks!
