[Solved] Tommy: Cpanel Plugin Request

[DmC]

I would like to ask if it's possible to install the following plugin in cPanel as it's currently not available (can't find the icon):

Thanks

That doesn't do what everyone thinks it does. Please see my response here (and the links in Krydos' post below mine) about why we can't use it: http://www.helionet.org/index/topic/27746-letsencrypt-support/?do=findComment&comment=126727

I see.

 

The answer lies on http://wiki.helionet.org/Installing_an_SSL_Certificate_with_ZeroSSL

 

Another and last question:

 

Is there any way to add CAA records by myself for my domains?

 

I would like to add somehow the following records for my two domains (I am paranoid, right?):

<domain>. 3600 IN CAA 0 issue "letsencrypt.org"
<domain>. 3600 IN CAA 0 issuewild "letsencrypt.org"
<domain>. 3600 IN CAA 0 iodef "mailto:admin@"

<domain>. 3600 IN CAA 0 issue "letsencrypt.org"
<domain>. 3600 IN CAA 0 issuewild "letsencrypt.org"
<domain>. 3600 IN CAA 0 iodef "mailto:admin@"

We don't support CAA records because cPanel doesn't support them. In fact, even CloudFlare doesn't support them just yet (and they're a big DNS provider). The RFC is too new and hasn't been widely adopted. It also doesn't help that most DNS software out there doesnt support them yet either.

 

For those who are interested: What is a CAA record? https://support.dnsimple.com/articles/caa-record/

 

And a cPanel feature request: https://features.cpanel.net/topic/add-support-for-caa-dns-records-type-257

Cloudflare will add support to it next day after cPanel includes it.

 

Imho cPanel is a great "tool" of pressure for services like CF when features are added to it as most major hosting providers use it by default.
