Best place for free/cheap ssl cert?
 

I used startssl last time but seems to be some issues with them now. Whats your go to?

LetsEncrypt is the only game in town I am aware of which issues certs recognized by the main browsers.

I use their certs now for all the sites I support.

UPDATE ** I had not looked at their news for a while, but they will also begin issuing wildcard certs in January!

Thanks,

which ACME client are you using on Slackware?

Try this script

I’m using, and would recommend the bash based GetSSL client.
I would never use or recommend certbot in any environment.

Another example is Dehydrated https://www.aaflalo.me/2016/09/dehyd...-lets-encrypt/

There's a Slackbuild too https://slackbuilds.org/repository/1...em/dehydrated/

Enjoy!

I was not comfortable installing someone else' automated script on some of my systems, so I set things up to generate all the certs on a local machine, then upload only the certs to the target servers via ssh/sftp.

It is a manual operation and requires no elevated permission to generate the certs.

I started with letsencrypt-nosudo and modified it slightly for better convenience in my own environment.

That's true, the root certs have been dropped from major browsers for a while (e.g., Mozilla, Google, and Apple have all revoked trust).
