How to mitigate the Hetzner/Linode XMPP.ru MitM interception incident
See RFC5507: "Why Adding a New Resource Record Type Is the Preferred Solution"
DNS providers should support a wide range of RR types, and domain owners should vote with their NS records.
See https://github.com/StackExchange/dnscontrol/blob/master/docu... for a list of DNS providers that support CAA.

Using AWS Route53 for personal use
I would create an AWS account for Route53 only. No other services or resources would be deployed. To manage the DNS records I may use: https://github.com/StackExchange/dnscontrol

Those who use custom domains for your email, which email do you use for the registrar that holds your domains?
Hover's DNS is very simple and bare bones. dnsimple works with dnscontrol so I can manage all my domains programatically

Domain names management systems
Have you tried dnscontrol.org? It ties into the registrar and DNS providers API's

DNS Zone File Creator
Was typing on phone and thought that was it. This one https://docs.dnscontrol.org/ explains a bit what it does and heres its github https://github.com/StackExchange/dnscontrol

Domain registrar Gandi gets bought out, screws existing customers
DNSControl[1] or another similar tool also helps a lot when moving. My DNS records are configured by a small JavaScript file in a git repository, and I can very easily point it at another DNS provider.

Setting up a Homelab: Part 1 Proxmox and LetsEncrypt
A self-signed certificate was generated and used by Proxmox which will always generate a warning on the browser. I did not like seeing this when trying to work on my home lab. So, I started looking for ways to put a valid SSL certificate in Proxmox. During my research, I found that Proxmox could be made to integrate with acme.sh; a free SSL certificate generator powered by ACME(Let's Encrypt).

How to Build Email Server with Exim on Alma Linux 9
Next, we will install acme.sh, a command-line tool for managing SSL/TLS certificates. I prefer acme.sh over certbot, as it does not depend on the OS version. For more details about acme.sh, check its GitHub repo here.

Dehydrated: Letsencrypt/acme client implemented as a shell-script
A very relevant question. Acme.sh, a similar shell script ACME client, had a remote code execution problem last year.

Ask HN: What is your experience with ZeroSSL?
As a result, any certificates issued (or renewed) after Feb 8th will not work on older Android devices (< 7.1.1), unless the ACME client has been configure to request an alternate certificate chain. The "alternate chain" workaround will also stop working on June 6th.
I need to support these older Android devices so I am looking for alternatives. I have seen ZeroSSL mentioned a few times; it is also the default CA for acme.sh (the ACME client I am using nowadays) [2]. They have a number of paid plans but ACME certificates are free [3].
I'll be testing this over the next few days, but I would also like to ask if people here have experience with ZeroSSL (good or bad :-). Any feedback would be helpful.

Why Certificate Lifecycle Automation Matters
Huh, the environment variable thing was specifically aimed at acme.sh which rather arbitrarily changed the config value from ACMEDNS_UPDATE_URL to ACMEDNS_BASE_URL, never acknowledged this in a changelog and then silently failed after an automatic upgrade as recommended by the default install:
https://github.com/acmesh-official/acme.sh/commit/2ce145f359...
It's also cleared out my .account.conf files when run on the suggested cron.
I've started using updown which also monitors my TLS certs simply because I no longer trust the process to work as documented.

The Bureau of Meteorology website does not support connections via HTTPS
It depends on your provider though. I can tell from experience that with OVH and their API, it's been easy to set up the automatic renewal via DNS verification. Apparently, the official client has support for the DNS API of 159 providers: https://github.com/acmesh-official/acme.sh/wiki/dnsapi

I made a tool for automatically updating the current and next (rollover) TLSA DNS records with acme.sh and the Cloudflare API
For the few people here that happen to run a self-hosted email server with acme.sh for TLS key/cert generation and Cloudflare for DNS management, I have made a tool that i personally use to get a perfect 100% score on Internet.nl's email test.

How to get LetsEncrypt certs from PfSense/ACME to other machines? (automated??)
All of this is to say it's a decent amount of work to save the hassle of deploying certbot or acme.sh on the remote machines, pick your poison.

This is Fine
People wonder why I like using the shell-based ACME client like dehydrated (or acme.sh):
* https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=dehydrated
* https://github.com/acmesh-official/acme.sh
Versus the official client certbot:
* https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=python3-certbot
A kludgy as very long shell scripts are (thought to be), I have a better chance of being able to go through all the code and understand it than a dozen(+) Python libraries.
What are some alternatives?
octoDNS - Tools for managing DNS across multiple providers
letsencrypt - Certbot is EFF's tool to obtain certs from Let's Encrypt and (optionally) auto-enable HTTPS on your server. It can also act as a client for any other CA that uses the ACME protocol.
DomainMOD - DomainMOD is an open source application written in PHP & MySQL used to manage your domains and other internet assets in a central location. DomainMOD also includes a Data Warehouse framework that allows you to import your web server data so that you can view, export, and report on your live data.
