kubectl -n cattle-system create secret tls tls-rancher-ingress --cert=/root/star.rfed.io.cert --key=/root/star.rfed.io.key

kubectl -n cattle-system create secret generic tls-ca --from-file=/root/cacerts.pem 

install rancher with tls certs

helm upgrade -i rancher rancher-latest/rancher -n cattle-system --create-namespace --set hostname=rancher.rfed.io --set bootstrapPassword=bootStrapAllTheThings --set replicas=1 --set ingress.tls.source=secret --set ingress.tls.secretName=tls-rancher-ingress --set privateCA=true 

yes, command has server address and also have 443/6443 access
I troubleshoot little and think this is problem related to token validation or authontication

Is there a script output from the node itself?

i saw rancher script to register a new node (system-agent-install.sh)
I stuck at connecting to https:///v3/connect/register

when manually try to curl this url, I get 401 Authontication error

Are you able to join the Rancher Users Slack https://slack.rancher.io/ ? That would be a better place to post logs and other conversations.

sure, Thank you!
