Hi!
Maybe someone can help me with a problem I’m having, vaguely related to self hosting.
I want to use a domain with let’s encrypt certificates locally. I realise the only way to do this is a (automated) DNS-01 challenge if I don’t want to expose anything to the outside.
Those DNS challenges require my name server to have some kind of API to automate the process. My registrar/name server doesn’t have a API unfortunately.
I want to use the opportunity to switch my registrar and name server in one go, but I’m pretty picky…
My wish list is:
- MFA for general account administration
- scoped tokens or account for API access (don’t need or want to manage everything by API)
- can handle .at domains
- not cloudflare
- registrar and name server should be one entity if possible
- european if possible
- supported by ngnix proxy manager if possible
Backup plan would be picking a registrar which supports DNSSEC for .at domains and use desec.io I guess.
But maybe the hive mind has a good recommendation for me? :)
Thank you in advance for reading! I’m aware I’m just a bit extra, but i want to be able to just ignore the whole name server and domain topic for the next ten years again if I can.
Cheers!
