- Gotta change all agents' puppet.conf to have listen = true in either 
[main] or [agent].
- Gotta open port 8139 to incoming connections on every agent node's 
firewall.  
- Gotta add the following stanza somewhere near the top of each agent 
node's auth.conf file:

path /run
auth yes
allow puppet.example.com

(trading puppet.example.com for your puppet master's certname.)

Given that, you might find MCollective not that much more work.
