Maverick 10.10 and bcfg2 1.1.1 cannot authenticate client

[revzalot]

I've installed bcfg2 server 1.1.1 on ubuntu 10.10 and I cannot authenticate my ubuntu 10.10 bcfg2 client to the my bcfg2 server. I redid my ca certs twice. My ldap client webdev121 is in dns and can be resolvable. 10.04 bcfg2 server version worked fine by the way.

Here's the error from the client side:

SOLVED! The server couldn't do a reverse nslookup so I added the client to /etc/hosts.
