Greetings,

While using puppet 2.7.6-266 on a very old Windows XP system (I know WinXP is not supported by puppet), I have run into an error when running Puppet Agent: "err: Could not request certificate: SSL_connect SYSCALL returned=5 errno=0 state=SSLv2/v3 read server hello A"

My install procedure is that from the Puppet Labs site: http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/1/wiki/Puppet_Windows

Watching the transaction via wireshark, communication is and is killed very shortly after it starts, just over 0.1 seconds between the first Syn and the last Rst.

The Puppet Master receives the client's certificate. I am also able to sign the certificate, which does not alter the behavior of puppet on the client. I can not confirm it, but it took several times running the Puppet Agent for the system's SSL certificate to reach the point where "puppetca --list" would display it. The Puppet Master is running Puppet version 2.6.2-5.

I have a second, new Windows 7 system, using the same software versions, has no issue connecting to the Puppet Master.

In a thread titled "SSH port forwarding" from 28 March 2011(?) (http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.sysutils.puppet.user/29632) it was mentioned that the Puppet Master has a TLS timeout of 0.1 seconds.

Is this a general issue with Puppet and Windows XP?
Is there a way to increase the TLS timeout on the Puppet Master?
Alternatively, is there a method to confirm that the TLS timeout is my problem?

Thank you,
Andrew
