I have simply been turning off ssl verify mode on them to make them work. In lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/puppet/network/http/connection.rb edit the function initialize_connection... right before the @connection return put @connection.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE, Eg: @connection.use_ssl = use_ssl # Use configured timeout (#1176) @connection.read_timeout = Puppet[:configtimeout] @connection.open_timeout = Puppet[:configtimeout] cert_setup @connection.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE <--- this. @connection end It's not the best way I'm sure, but I can't be bothered to put any effort into these dinosaurs.
