[Puppet Users] v3 agent to v4 master ssl issue

I have a puppet 3 agent attempting an agent run against a puppet 4 master but I am getting ssl errors. I'm out of google-fu and I've verified certs and keys, run both sides in debug using puppetserver and the rack "puppet master --no-daemonize --verbose", and am not seeing anything that jumps

[Puppet Users] bizarro error when starting a puppet agent

First a disclaimer: I am trying to provide support for our production team setting up a system as a Puppet agent node and most of the work I'm doing is being handled with the operations team acting as my voice operated keyboards. I handed my operations team instructions on how to install a
