Re: [webmin-l] LE-certificate for Webmin

[Jamie C. <jca...@we...>]

You have to enter a directory that's served by your Apache or Nginx webserver for the domain you want the cert for. Annoyingly, Let's Encrypt can't connect to the Webmin port (10000) for validation.

Just curious ... if I want to get an LE-cert for the actual Webmin installation, which directory should I enter under "other directory"? 

I mean, if I have http://foo.com and I access Webmin on http://foo.com:10000 (or https://foo.com), should Webmin not be able to serve the require files by itself? 

Or am I missing something? 

We often have the actual server name as the name of our webmin installation, and then any number of virtual "real" web servers/sites on the same server. 

But can't we use Webmin to request an LE-certificate "for itself" so to speak?
