Any recommended "quick start" guides for LetsEncrypt? I get hung up trying to actually understand the process but I should just nut up and get it done.
Setting up a reverse proxy with nginx proxy manager is pretty simple and comes with letsencrypt support.
For letsencrypt to work, a software needs to write a confirmation code to a special path in your domain. When letsencrypt verifies that you can write to this path (and therefore control the domain), you get the certificate.
Is this only for public facing services then? I have little desire to expose my services except through tailscale or something like that.
No! If you have a domain and can do DNS* verification you can get fully functional certificates to use on your internal network.
*Doesn’t have to be DNS, but then you’d need to expose http to the internet for verification.
Reading a post on the LE forum it sounds like smallstep might be closer to what I need.
