Lets Encrypt Manual Plugin #133

Open ghost opened 4 years ago

ghost commented 4 years ago

Hello

I think currently its only possible to request the wildcard domain name certificate if the DNS zone is hosted on the same virtualmin install.

I use a separate DNS provider for the domain DNS, it is not hosted on Virtualmin BIND. So Lets Encrypt can not use the DNS based validation.

I would like to use the manual plugin for certbot, so if I click on the Request certificate in Virtualmin then it will print a TXT record I need to add to my own DNS, and after I am done click on a button.

Is this possible? If not, i would like you to take this as the feature request.

This wouldn't work in practice I think, because there is a time limit on how long Let's Encrypt will wait for the DNS record to be added.
