Let\u2019s Encrypt is a free, automated, and open certificate authority (CA), run for the public\u2019s benefit. Let\u2019s Encrypt is a service provided by the Internet Security Research Group (ISRG).<\/p>\n

In this tutorial you will find out how you can benefit from these certificates by providing security for your Webmin websites.<\/p>\n

The tutorial was prepared with our “Webmin 1.7 with CentOS 6” template and is meant to work on our self-managed virtual private servers.<\/p>\n

0. Preliminary requirements:<\/b>
\n“Webmin 1.7 with CentOS 6” template installed on server;
\nFully updates server software (yum update);
\n“Git” package installed (yum install git -y).<\/p>\n

1. Downloading “Let’s encrypt” client:<\/b>
\ngit clone https:\/\/github.com\/letsencrypt\/letsencrypt \/opt\/letsencrypt<\/code><\/p>\n

2. Installing necessary Python module:<\/b>
\nyum install python-argparse -y<\/code><\/p>\n

3. Adding additional name server<\/b>
\nFor “Let’s encrypt” certificates to work properly we have to add “localhost” nameserver. We do so by going to “Webmin” control panel > “Networking” > “Network Configuration” > “Hostname and DNS Client” and adding “127.0.0.1” as additional name server:
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

4. Enabling SSL feature<\/b>
\nAlso for certificate function to be active for your virtual servers we have to enable it in “Virtualmin” control panel”. We have to open “System Settings” > “Features and Plugins” and after checking “SSL website” save settings:
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

5. Installing “Let’s encrypt” certificate<\/b>
\nFor new “Virtual server”:
\nOpen “Server Configuration” > “Manage SSL Certificate” > “Let’s Encrypt” and press button “Request Certificate”:
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

For existing “Virtual server”:
\nBefore proceeding with certificate installation we have to enable “SSL website feature”. Open “Edit Virtual Server” > “Enable features” check “SSL website enabled?” and save. Then proceed with step above.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
