From what I can see "letsencrypt" works by using its own http listener to check that you really do own the domain name by making an http call back to the listener. So I'm not sure how you could get around that. I can tell you that I've successfully installed and used it with my production servers. If you're going to do this just for testing and on a different server then you could create subdomain.yourdomain.com and use that.
That is definitely a good thing to hear. I was wondering about how well they were accepted in the wild. I'm looking forward to getting this implemented.
Ok, I have to admit. This is some really cool stuff. With the hope of the following write, I was able to get up and running on ubuntu without any issue at all.
