Hi,
I started with Home Assistant almost two years ago, by following some step-by-step instructions. Didn’t do much during the last year, but this first Raspi4 with Home Assitant is still running fine and doing it’s jobs. No problems when updating or anything. (Quite impressive.)
Now, some weeks ago, I have started to look into the system in more detail again. Set up a second Raspi4 at home, later took my first steps with Proxmox on a Futro S920 thin client, have now HAOS11.1 in a virtual machine.
But remote access via https had problems. I lost track of what I did with the SSL certificates during these tests. I think, at some point I might have copied the self-signed certificates from my router (Fritzbox 7470) into home assistant.
In order to clean up, I deleted everything from /ssl. (Yeah, I know, normally I would move the files into some backup. But this is only a test-setup, and I assumed, the duckdns/letsencrypt add-on would recreate them anyways. Such things happen, when someone doesn’t really understand the practice of signed certificates…)
When restarting the DuckDNS add-on, the protocol says:
'[...]
[21:40:06] INFO: OK

[21:40:06] INFO: Renew certificate for domains: xxxxxxx.duckdns.org and aliases:

Is it possible, to get new SSL-certificates for the existing duckdns-domain?
Or would I have to use a new domain?
