Well I have finally implemented ACME certs into my Lab and as you told me, its actually not as painful as I thought. I used Go Daddy because I am commercial and it seems to work fine. Note that I couldn't get it to work on acme version 2.7.2 (Astlinux 1.3.2) but it worked fine on acme 2.7.9 (Astlinux 1.3.4) As there are lots of cool domain suffix’s now available, I can now connect to the interface using <customer id>.myportal.tel. Nice! Thanks all for your help.

Am I correct? IMO, using automatic ACME certs in AstLinux is the least-hassle approach ... after the initial setup. The hassle with a 1-2 year Wildcard SSL cert (other than the cost) is it needs to be deployed and updated to all the boxes, even if only every 1-2 years. You would need to create some sort of CRON script to do that, and probably with authentication. If you go through the trouble of creating a Wildcard SSL cert deploy/update system, you just as well mint your own Let's Encrypt Wildcard Certs at a central location, at no cost every two months. You need to weigh the pros/cons for your situation, I use Cloudflare for my ACME DNS validation, and after many renewals for many boxes using non-wildcard certs, it just works.

Thanks Lonnie As 1.3.2 is my current stable release, 13se should be good. I do like the concept actually.

Here are some dial plan changes I needed to make to move from Asterisk 11 to 13: - Unset JITTERBUFFER(adaptive)=default - CDR is completely different - ParkedCall application has changed Will the 13se version be the latest Asterisk 13 version? There were a few bugs with earlier Asterisk 13 versions! I do like the idea of no pjsip and the pain I had moving to 13, I wont be moving to 16 for quite a while.

Thanks for the survey responses, but publicly and privately. We have decided to no longer build Asterisk 11 in the future, but instead of Asterisk 11 we will be introducing a new 13se version, along with 13 and 16. The 13se version will have the same focus as Digium's Certified Asterisk, somewhat older, but more tested versions of Asterisk that don't change as often.

Hi List, As you know AstLinux's mail forwarder supports both TLS/STARTTLS (TCP 587) and SSL/SMTP (TCP 465). I ran across a very well written article that is worth sharing: SSL vs TLS vs STARTTLS https://www.fastmail.com/help/technical/ssltlsstarttls.html The current best practice is to use SMTP "implicit TLS" over port 465: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8314#section-3 This seems like good advice since STARTTLS starts as cleartext and things can go wrong. Unfortunately, some email clients hide the STARTTLS option and don't automatically disable STARTTLS when port 465 is chosen, Mail in iOS 12 is one such example. At least with AstLinux, choosing "SSL/SMTP" (no STARTTLS) and port 465 works, and the current best practice. Lonnie |

Followup, One disadvantage of generating local ACME certificates (using DNS validation) is your DNS provider's credentials are needed on each AstLinux box.

Hi Michael, You covered the correct answers quite well :-) But, for the bare metal case... The SAS drives might be a problem, not sure. The Dell BIOS must support "Legacy" (not UEFI) boot.

Hi All I'm looking at running Astlinux on a dedicated DC based blade server and wondering if there are any glaring reasons why it wont work before I go through the setup. I realise this has been discussed before and the outcome was to run it inside a VM on the server but I would rather avoid installing this if I don't need to. And I also realise that a VPS is cheaper and better as I can snapshot it regularly but for some of my high end use cases, there is nothing like a dedicated server for guaranteed performance and I am looking to build redundancy across Data Centres. The specs are: Dell PowerEdge M610 4 Core Intel Xeon L5630 - 2.13Ghz 4G RAM 2 x 146G SAS in RAID1 Thanks all. Regards Michael Knill |
