Hi,

I am new to puppet. I have installed puppet agent and puppet master on two different centos. For starting communication between client and server I am sending request from client. This certificate is signed my master. But on client it is giving this error

Info: Caching certificate for puppetagentappd.eng.vmware.com
Error: Could not request certificate: Server hostname 'puppetmasterappd.eng.vmware.com' did not match server certificate; expected one of centos, DNS:centos, DNS:puppet

Please help me with this

Your puppetmaster is calling itself "one of centos, DNS:centos,
DNS:puppet", but you're expecting to talk to
"puppetmasterappd.eng.vmware.com". Therefore your agent refuses to talk
to this server.
Use the "certname" configuration directive or fix the hostname of the
puppetmaster to generate and use certificates matching the required
hostnames.

Regards, David
