Hi mrT Can you provide the error you receive?
Another easy way to test what's going on is to run the master and agent in --no-daemonize mode (stop existing master and agent and add that to the command line with verbose and debug). Also, what version and OS are you running? So a quick run down of stuff to try(some you have done): * make sure you can resolve the masters dns name from the client. * stop all puppet services on master and client. * remove the ssl dir on both. * start the master in --no-daemonize mode * start the agent in --no-daemonize mode * if it errors use openssl s_client to check the certificate from the master, and confirm the common name is that of the masters dns name. Okay, see how that goes.
