Have you added the cert to both the trusted root store in the certificates mmc as well as a trusted root in SharePoint central admin?

I suspect this might be my issue. Is there a time problem as it is out of sync between the two servers? Trevor Seward

Generally a time sync issue can lead to problems with the validity time of the cert which would prevent communication.

But a time sync issue is significant for domain-joined clients and... well, lots of services. Fix that first via w32tm.
