  1. …the same thing. I use simp_le with Haproxy on one server and nginx sni on another. Works very well. https://github.com/kuba/simp_le
  2. …can happen automatically. All you need to do is monitor your certificates as you would anyway. [1] https://github.com/kuba/simp_le
  3. …bloated and wants to fiddle with your HTTP server configuration. Bad idea. Use something small like https://github.com/kuba/simp_le or https://github.com/diafygi/acme-tiny
  4. …clients which do not require root. Here's a few: https://github.com/diafygi/letsencrypt-nosudo https://github.com/kuba/simp_le https://github.com/lukas2511/letsencrypt.sh Or you can go a more manual approach via…

  9. …question. You can also catch me on #letsencrypt, or better yet #simp_le (both at Freenode). [0] https://github.com/kuba/simp_le#manifest [1] https://github.com/kuba/simp_le/tree/master/pyi

  10. You may also want to try alternative client from https://github.com/kuba/simp_le . It can be easily dropped into crontab and renew certificates when necessary. Disclaimer: I'm the author of simp_le and developer of the official client :)
