This is going to be huge for HTTPS adoption on the web. In the future all web servers should have this feature. I wonder which will be next? IIS? Nginx?

- icebraining 9y agoKlaus Krapfenbauer, a participant of Mozilla Winter Of Security, already implemented a PoC module for Nginx: https://github.com/mozilla/mwos-letsencrypt-2015 https://github.com/mozilla/mwos-letsencrypt-2015 Unfortunately, it seems to be very dead.
- apple4ever 9y agoThat sucks. Besides the dumb low cert expiration length, built in support for Nginx is why I haven't adopted Let's Encrypt.
- jjeaff 9y agoThe low cert expiration date is by design. If you don't have a script renewing it automatically, you aren't doing it right.

- subway 9y agoNginx already has this via OpenResty and a script: https://github.com/GUI/lua-resty-auto-ssl https://github.com/GUI/lua-resty-auto-ssl
- NicoJuicy 9y agoIIS has support through a powershell script
- stephenr 9y agoIf they take the apache approach, and its a loadable module, sure. I personally don't want Apache loading mod_ssl (or this module either) when I'm not using it. With things like nginx, caddy, etc you have to recompile to remove that part, if it's even possible.
