Hey everyone,

Just a quick question, let’s encrypt, what is it and how can I take advantage of its services?

For a bit of background I’m trying to setup KanIDM and the need for a ca certificate is needed, I was told to use let’s encrypt to create it.

Just looking for knowledge.

Thanks!

    I don’t know KanIDM specifically so take this with a grain of salt.

    Let’s Encrypt only provides server certificates. The kind used to secure a connection (HTTPS, IMAPS, etc). KanIDM might require a Certificate Authority (CA) certificate to issue Client Certificates (used for authentication like MIME-S, WPA Enterprise, etc). Let’s Encrypt cannot be used for this purpose.
