Have you tried using it? On every domain I've tried to obtain a cert it has failed.
For me StartSSL may be suboptimal, but at least it works, which is more than I can say for Letsencrypt in its current state.
- icebraining 11y agoWhat client did you use? acme-tiny has been flawless for me, though it's more manual than the main client. https://github.com/diafygi/acme-tiny https://github.com/diafygi/acme-tiny
- marcosdumay 11y agoWell, if you are some kind of openssl master, acme-tiny is flawless. In practice, for most people, reserve a few hours for your first deployment. After you got a script that calls openssl right, it's fast to adapt for other domains, but the first time is hard.
- icebraining 11y agoWhy do you have to be a master? Just copy-paste the commands given in the README of the repo, replacing the domain for your own.
- marcosdumay 11y agoWell, at least on my computer, they were mostly broken.
- garblegarble 11y agoI use https://github.com/lukas2511/letsencrypt.sh https://github.com/lukas2511/letsencrypt.sh and it handles all the openssl stuff for you, I've found it to be really nice and light-weight. You just give it a directory to put the ACME challenge files in and a list of your domains
