Today, I finally finished adding dns support
to acmed.
To use it, you'll need to have a functioning
DNS server running.
Then, when you tell it to use dns, acmed will
write a snippet that defines the required dns
records. By default, this will be put into:
/lib/ndb/dnschallenge
which you will need to include with:
database=
<...previous contents...>
file=/lib/ndb/dnschallenge
From there, you just run acmed as usual, but
with an additional parameter so that it knows
the domain name:
acmed -t dns \
you@example.com \
/path/to/csr \
domain.com
and it will handle generating the challenge
and telling the dns server to refresh.
Caveat: this needs to run as the same user
as the dns server (typically hostowner).
Other than updating the manpage with an
example of doing a DNS challenge, I think
that this is more or less ready to commit
to 9front.
