Hi,
is it possible to renew wildcard domain automatically without dns intervention?

Hi, Edi,

@daniel15 kindly told me there is help named "acme-dns" :)

The overview described in github repository is:

Limited DNS server with RESTful HTTP API to handle ACME DNS challenges easily and securely.

Relatively, it seems more difficult than to use certbot renew and cron.

Besides, I haven't used it yet because I'm moving to OpenBSD's acme-client.

Heddi, thanks for sharing your tutorial. Reading trough the manual, doesn't seem like the openbsd acme-client supports DNS challenge. Any thoughts?

Hello, Rafael.

Sorry that I knew little about non-http-01 challenges with OpenBSD's acme-client.
You might be perhaps right. acme-client's documentation says:

acme-client implements the “http-01” challenge type

According to the original writer, Kristaps, it had -t option to use custom challenges, but they were "too system-specific to provide in a safe manner".
