-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.sp
-Because the puppetmasterd daemon defaults to not signing client
-certificate requests, this script is available for signing outstanding
-requests. It can be used to list outstanding requests and then either
-sign them individually or sign all of them.
-.SH OPTIONS
-.sp
-Note that any configuration parameter that\(aqs valid in the configuration
-file is also a valid long argument. For example, \(aqssldir\(aq is a valid
-configuration parameter, so you can specify \(aq\-\-ssldir <directory>\(aq as an
-argument.
-.sp
-See the configuration file documentation at
-\fI\%http://reductivelabs.com/projects/puppet/reference/configref.html\fP for
-the full list of acceptable parameters. A commented list of all
-configuration options can also be generated by running puppet cert with
-\(aq\-\-genconfig\(aq.
-.INDENT 0.0
-.TP
-.B all: Operate on all items. Currently only makes sense with
-.
-\(aq\-\-sign\(aq, \(aq\-\-clean\(aq, or \(aq\-\-list\(aq.
-.TP
-.B digest: Set the digest for fingerprinting (defaults to md5). Valid
-.
-values depends on your openssl and openssl ruby extension
-version, but should contain at least md5, sha1, md2,
-sha256.
-.TP
-.B clean: Remove all files related to a host from puppet cert\(aqs
-.
-storage. This is useful when rebuilding hosts, since new
-certificate signing requests will only be honored if puppet
-cert does not have a copy of a signed certificate for that
-host. The certificate of the host remains valid. If \(aq\-\-all\(aq
-is specified then all host certificates, both signed and
-unsigned, will be removed.
-.UNINDENT
-.sp
-debug: Enable full debugging.
-.INDENT 0.0
-.TP
-.B generate: Generate a certificate for a named client. A
-.
-certificate/keypair will be generated for each client named
-on the command line.
-.UNINDENT
-.sp
-help: Print this help message
-.INDENT 0.0
-.TP
-.B list: List outstanding certificate requests. If \(aq\-\-all\(aq is
-.
-specified, signed certificates are also listed, prefixed by
-\(aq+\(aq, and revoked or invalid certificates are prefixed by
-\(aq\-\(aq (the verification outcome is printed in parenthesis).
-.UNINDENT
-.sp
-print: Print the full\-text version of a host\(aqs certificate.
-.INDENT 0.0
-.TP
-.B fingerprint: Print the DIGEST (defaults to md5) fingerprint of a host\(aqs
-.
-certificate.
-.TP
-.B revoke: Revoke the certificate of a client. The certificate can be
-.
-specified either by its serial number, given as a decimal
-number or a hexadecimal number prefixed by \(aq0x\(aq, or by its
-hostname. The certificate is revoked by adding it to the
-Certificate Revocation List given by the \(aqcacrl\(aq config
-parameter. Note that the puppetmasterd needs to be
-restarted after revoking certificates.
-.TP
-.B sign: Sign an outstanding certificate request. Unless \(aq\-\-all\(aq is
-.
-specified, hosts must be listed after all flags.
-.UNINDENT
-.sp
-verbose: Enable verbosity.

-version: Print the puppet version number and exit.

-.B verify: Verify the named certificate against the local CA
