The OpenSearch nodes are able to communicate, and I can make API calls using client certs and the admin username/password.
The Dashboard can’t connect.
Has anyone got this working?
These are the errors in the OpenSearch log (10.19.192.2 is the IP of the Dashboard):
caught exception while handling client http traffic, closing connection Netty4HttpChannel{localAddress=/10.19.192.4:9200, remoteAddress=/10.19.192.2:59484}

@pablo below is my config.yml
Note, I also tried setting http_enabled and transport_enabled to true in clientcert_auth_domain:, but didn’t make any difference
---
# This is the main OpenSearch Security configuration file where authentication
# and authorization is defined.
#
# You need to configure at least one authentication domain in the authc of this file.
# An authentication domain is responsible for extracting the user credentials from
# the request and for validating them against an authentication backend like Active Directory for example.
#
# If more than one authentication domain is configured the first one which succeeds wins.
# If all authentication domains fail then the request is unauthenticated.
# In this case an exception is thrown and/or the HTTP status is set to 401.
#
# After authentication authorization (authz) will be applied. There can be zero or more authorizers which collect
# the roles from a given backend for the authenticated user.
#
# Both, authc and auth can be enabled/disabled separately for REST and TRANSPORT layer. Default is true for both.
# http_enabled: true
# transport_enabled: true
#
# For HTTP it is possible to allow anonymous authentication. If that is the case then the HTTP authenticators try to
# find user credentials in the HTTP request. If credentials are found then the user gets regularly authenticated.
# If none can be found the user will be authenticated as an "anonymous" user. This user has always the username "anonymous"
# and one role named "anonymous_backendrole".
# If you enable anonymous authentication all HTTP authenticators will not challenge.
#
#
# Note: If you define more than one HTTP authenticators make sure to put non-challenging authenticators like "proxy" or "clientcert"
# first and the challenging one last.
# Because it's not possible to challenge a client with two different authentication methods (for example
# Kerberos and Basic) only one can have the challenge flag set to true. You can cope with this situation
# by using pre-authentication, e.g. sending a HTTP Basic authentication header in the request.
#
# Default value of the challenge flag is true.
#
#
# HTTP
# basic (challenging)
# proxy (not challenging, needs xff)
# kerberos (challenging)
# clientcert (not challenging, needs https)
# jwt (not challenging)
# host (not challenging) #DEPRECATED, will be removed in a future version.
# host based authentication is configurable in roles_mapping
# Authc
# internal
# noop
# ldap

I think I might have fixed it.
I copied admin.key and admin.pem client certs over from one of the Elastic nodes to the Dashboard, and added these lines to opensearch_dashboards.yml
