    Hello :)


    I was wondering if it is possible to add to Centminmod an addon that will auto install commercial ssl certificates?

    The user should upload on a specific folder or the script ask for ssl certificate files and then do some magic and enable it :)

    Thank you

    One last question:

    If i copy the self signed or let's encrypt certificate files from one server to another they will work or i have to re generate them every time on any new server?

    Thank you

    You can copy them, just as you would do with purchased SSL certs :)

    Yeah if you copy them from /usr/local/nginx/conf/ssl/yourdomain.com directory along with nginx vhost files (/usr/local/nginx/conf/conf.d/yourdomain.com.conf and /usr/local/nginx/conf/conf.d/yourdomain.com.ssl.conf), they will work. One thing is with letsencrypt they need auto renewal as they have 90 day expiry, so you need to setup addons/acmetool.sh via acmeinstall command on new server
    Code (Text):
    ./acmetool.sh acmeinstall

    and then copy over the /root/.acme.sh/yourdomain.com directory too which contains the details acme.sh client needs for auto renew cronjobs.
