Feature Requests

Hi :slight_smile:

Is it planned to add DNS challenge in Let’s Encrypt addon with Bookmyname / Scaleway ?

On pfSense this feature is aleready present, so maybe it could be possible in the addon.

Thank you very much :wink:

Hi @flyer

as the Let’S Encrypt add-on relies on certbot, the support for these DNS providers needs to be added there first. There was already the try to add Bookmyname to certbot, but it was declined in the first, as the certbot project doesn’t accept new DNS provider 1st-party plugins, but they still allow 3rd-party plugins for certbot (see this comment).

Anyway, there is no support for 3rd-party certbot-plugins in the add-on, as every plugin needs to be installed and configured manually in different ways (it’s comparable with using custom integrations), those it would just not be possible for the add-on, to handle/predict all these special behaviors of each already and in future existing 3rd-party certbot-plugins.

But you can still use the http challenge in the add-on, which is independent of the used DNS provider
