Hi all,
I've recently set all of our servers up with puppet, which for the 
majority has been working perfectly.
Last week I had to disable puppet on all machines as I stupidly 
overloaded webrick so much and no requests were ever getting processed.

My puppetmaster was previously setup for testing only, I never intended 
to deploy it fully.  I was however impressed so decided to go ahead and 
push it out to all machines, this was however was at the time running on 
a spare 600MHz machine "machine1".  "machine1" had the CNAME "puppet" 
pointing to it so I didn't have to configure each puppet node with the 
relevant hostname.  At the end of last week I moved puppet over to a new 
more powerful machine "machine2", I altered the "puppet" CNAME to point 
to this machine and all worked fine, puppetd --test continued to work 
correctly.

So after that was confirmed to be working I proceeded to attempt to 
configure mongrel by following the wiki page 
(http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/UsingMongrel).  The wiki page 
instructs to run a separate instance of Apache just for puppet, this 
wasn't really convenient for my situation so I made my existing Apache 
installation listen on the relevant port and added a virtual host with 
the settings (http://pastie.org/595197).

You can see my settings in the above pastie, Apache starts fine and 
appears to function fine.  However when I run puppetd --test on any node 
I receive the following error:

warning: Certificate validation failed; consider using the certname 
configuration option
err: Could not retrieve catalog: Certificates were not trusted: hostname 
was not match with the server certificate
warning: Not using cache on failed catalog

I've been tearing my hair out over this for a fair while, most likely 
due to a slight typo in the config or something.

Any assistance would be very greatly appreciated.
Many thanks
