Hello All,

I am getting error on agent machine for digital certificate not found, when i run the command "sudo puppet agent -t" and getting error
Exiting; no certificate found and waitforcert is disabled.

I can run the command manually for digital certificate but is there any way to generate the certificate on agent machine automatically without running any manual commands.

Thanks,
Nishantu

The agent *does* perform all generating it can on its won, but the
*signing* (through the master/CA) cannot be automated on the agent side.

It's good security practice to not automate signing at all, except for
pregenerated certificates that your agents probably receive during
provisioning.

HTH,
Felix
