I'm just a hobbyist experimenting with Talos and Kubernetes, and I'm trying to add a second node to my new cluster. After booting Talos and applying the worker configuration, I'm left waiting for `service "apid" to be "up"`. Eventually, I get a connection error that mentions an authentication handshake failure related to a TLS certificate. I'm looking for any debugging tips or insights to help me solve this issue. As a side note, I've generated a new worker.yaml file using secrets from the current control plane config, but it hasn't made a difference.

Did you use the right talosconfig with the flag `--talosconfig`, or did you place it in `~/.talos/config`? Also, could you share the exact commands you ran? A good start for troubleshooting can be found in the Talos documentation for troubleshooting.

Yes, I've checked both of those. I downloaded the image from the image factory, put it on a Ventoy drive, and updated the machine config with the necessary settings. I booted from Ventoy, waited for the node to confirm it's ready, removed the drive, and applied the config each time. Unfortunately, I keep getting the same result. I've tried different images and network settings too, but the issue persists.
