Description:

certbotdnsngenix 0.0.2

NGENIX DNS Authenticator plugin for Certbot
This plugin automates the process of completing a dns-01 challenge by
creating, and subsequently removing, TXT records using the NGENIX Remote API.

Named Arguments
To start using DNS authentication for NGENIX, pass the following arguments on
certbot’s command line:


--authenticator dns-ngenix
select the authenticator plugin (Required)

--dns-ngenix-credentials
NGENIX Remote User credentials
INI file. (Required)

--dns-ngenix-propagation-seconds

waiting time for DNS to propagate before asking
the ACME server to verify the DNS record.
(Default: 300, Recommended: >= 600)







Credentials
An example credentials.ini file:
# NGENIX API credentials used by Certbot
dns_ngenix_email = user@domain.tld
dns_ngenix_api_token = ngenix_token
The path to this file can be provided interactively or using the
--dns-ngenix-credentials command-line argument. Certbot records the path
to this file for use during renewal, but does not store the file’s contents.

Caution!
You should protect these API credentials as you would a password. Users who
can read this file can use these credentials to issue arbitrary API calls on
your behalf. Users who can cause Certbot to run using these credentials can
complete a dns-01 challenge to acquire new certificates or revoke
existing certificates for associated domains, even if those domains aren’t
being managed by this server.

Certbot will emit a warning if it detects that the credentials file can be
accessed by other users on your system. The warning reads “Unsafe permissions
on credentials configuration file”, followed by the path to the credentials
file. This warning will be emitted each time Certbot uses the credentials file,
including for renewal, and cannot be silenced except by addressing the issue
(e.g., by using a command like chmod 600 to restrict access to the file).
