letsencrypt client has been updated to 0.1.1 Let's Encrypt client 0.1.1 released - Let's Encrypt Community Support For Centmin Mod Letsencrypt integration right now every run always updates the letsencrypt client before trying to obtain a Letsencrypt SSL certificate

Code:

/root/.local/share/letsencrypt/bin/letsencrypt --help 

  letsencrypt [SUBCOMMAND] [options] [-d domain] [-d domain] ...

The Let's Encrypt agent can obtain and install HTTPS/TLS/SSL certificates.  By
default, it will attempt to use a webserver both for obtaining and installing
the cert. Major SUBCOMMANDS are:

  (default) run        Obtain & install a cert in your current webserver
  certonly             Obtain cert, but do not install it (aka "auth")
  install              Install a previously obtained cert in a server
  revoke               Revoke a previously obtained certificate
  rollback             Rollback server configuration changes made during install
  config_changes       Show changes made to server config during installation
  plugins              Display information about installed plugins

Choice of server plugins for obtaining and installing cert:

  --apache          Use the Apache plugin for authentication & installation
  --standalone      Run a standalone webserver for authentication
  (nginx support is experimental, buggy, and not installed by default)
  --webroot         Place files in a server's webroot folder for authentication

OR use different plugins to obtain (authenticate) the cert and then install it:

  --authenticator standalone --installer apache

More detailed help:

  -h, --help [topic]    print this message, or detailed help on a topic;
                        the available topics are:

   all, automation, paths, security, testing, or any of the subcommands or

  -w WEBROOT_PATH, --webroot-path WEBROOT_PATH
                        public_html / webroot path. This can be specified
                        multiple times to handle different domains; each
                        domain will have the webroot path that preceded it.
                        For instance: `-w /var/www/example -d example.com -d
                        www.example.com -w /var/www/thing -d thing.net -d
                        m.thing.net` (default: None)

got a few minutes ?

Let's encrypt is now the 5th largest CA provider in the world ! Surprisingly Comodo ECC has such a huge number !



how are people using LE

 

sweet Let's Encrypt DNS challenge verfication has been enabled on staging dev API end point DNS challenge is in staging - Feature Requests - Let's Encrypt Community Support

definitely needed if you run load balanced cluster of servers and need to validate your domain for Letsencrypt SSL certificate issuance

If you're playing with Centmin Mod 123.09beta01le2 branch and already setup the client after running nginx vhost centmin.sh menu option 2 or 22, you can edit the webroot.ini config file at /etc/letsencrypt/webroot.ini and switch back to staging server by uncommenting it and commenting out the live one for beta invitees

Code:

# Always use the staging/testing server
#server = https://acme-staging.api.letsencrypt.org/directory

# for beta invitees
server = https://acme-v01.api.letsencrypt.org/directory

However, Centmin Mod isn't setup for dns challenge routines only webroot so not much testing can be done yet. Staging is still useful if you want to get around public beta rate limits for general testing.

 

Let's Encrypt has issued 252,000+ SSL certificates since public beta launch Let's Encrypt Stats - Let's Encrypt - Free SSL/TLS Certificates



or is it 255k ssl certificates ?

 

whoops Malvertising campaign used a free certificate from Let's Encrypt | CSO Online

 

Let's Encrypt has issued over 430,000+ SSL certificates since launch Let's Encrypt Stats - Let's Encrypt - Free SSL/TLS Certificates !

 

not really yet look at authentication challenges methods in stats Let's Encrypt Stats - Let's Encrypt - Free SSL/TLS Certificates - hardly any use dns-01 right now

probably due to clients support lacking for dns-01

 

yes will be something awesome for all Centmin Mod LEMP stack users

 

Let's Encrypt has surpassed 1 million issued free SSL certificates now Let's Encrypt Stats - Let's Encrypt - Free SSL/TLS Certificates !
