====== 24.04 Certificate Provisioning ======
Certificate Authority Security Certificates
Install the required packages:
apt install certbot python3-certbot-dns-ovh
Create an OVH Consumer Key using the following details:
Site: https://api.ovh.com/createToken/?GET=/domain/zone/*&POST=/domain/zone/*&PUT=/domain/zone/*&DELETE=/domain/zone/*/record/*
Script name: certbot
Script description: ACME client for security certificates
Validity: Unlimited
You may need to use the OVH "Userid" rather than email - and you need to turn on developer APIs in the account options.
With the output of the above site, create /etc/letsencrypt/ovh.ini
# OVH API credentials used by Certbot
dns_ovh_endpoint = ovh-eu
dns_ovh_application_key =
dns_ovh_application_secret =
dns_ovh_consumer_key =
Secure the file:
chmod 600 /etc/letsencrypt/ovh.ini
If the key is ever compromised, revoking it by logging into https://api.ovh.com/console/ and executing:
Check apps with: GET /me/api/application
Locate correct app: GET /me/api/application/{applicationId}
Delete the app: DELETE /me/api/application/{applicationId}
Update the configuration file /etc/letsencrypt/cli.ini to use DNS validation at OVH:
# Use DNS authentication at OVH by default
authenticator = dns-ovh
dns-ovh-propagation-seconds = 60
dns-ovh-credentials = /etc/letsencrypt/ovh.ini
To trust Let’s Encrypt certificates:
wget -O /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/lets-encrypt-r3.crt https://letsencrypt.org/certs/lets-encrypt-r3.pem
update-ca-certificates
Create /etc/letsenrypt/renewal-hooks/deploy/distribute.sh:
#!/bin/bash
declare -A domain

Make the script executable and secure:
chmod 750 /etc/letsencrypt/renewal-hooks/deploy/distribute.sh
Request a test certificate to validate the process:
certbot certonly --dry-run --rsa-key-size 4096 -d www.example.net
Once you have entered an e-mail address, agreed to the terms and the process has succeeded, run the process for a domains needed:
certbot certonly --rsa-key-size 4096 -d www.example.net
For other services... (you may not need those)
certbot certonly --rsa-key-size 4096 -d cloud.example.net
certbot certonly --rsa-key-size 4096 -d mail.example.net
certbot certonly --rsa-key-size 4096 -d voice.example.net
