I do not (currently) have either Cipher= or Digest= in any config files.
However, from my research so far I understand that those are only used
for the data channel, and as far as I can tell the failure I'm hitting
happens during the negotiation of the metadata connection...
I'm using the stock tinc package provided in the Jammy repository on
that server.
OpenSSL libssl3 definitely deprecates a lot of algorithms, but as I
mentioned in my original post I (believe I successfully) turned on the
libssl "legacy" provider, which seems to have helped but not been
sufficient... and I am not sure what additional steps I can take to
determine what algorithm is now failing.
(Am I correct that tinc does not have any way to log the various
algorithms-to-be-used negotiated by the libssl library during connection
setup, etc.?)

That server is running Ubuntu Precise, so it has libssl1.0.1 . However,
when installing that server I built a tinc binary package from source
using the ubuntu/pool/universe/t/tinc/tinc_1.0.26-1.dsc source package
(i.e. from the Wily repo).
ldd on that system reports:
$ ldd /usr/sbin/tincd
linux-gate.so.1 => (0x00bb7000)

Let me know if I can provide any additional information, or if you have
any suggestions for additional debugging I can do on my side.
Thanks.
