一、找到了一款永久免费的https证书并自动续期的产品certbot-auto
之前写过一篇文章 Nginx配置免费自签名https证书、Nginx负载转发中的X-Forwarded-Proto意义及Access-Control-Allow-Origin同时允许http和https的跨域请求_nginx x-forwarded-proto-CSDN博客,实现了免费的https证书,但是那只是一个自验证的https证书,在浏览器里会被提示安全性有问题,网上各种云服务器上有很多https服务,但那些都是要花钱的,而且价格不菲,一年上千的都很多,不便宜啊。今天找到一个免费的https证书产品,自己试了一下,真的可以用,而且完全免费 publish:July 19, 2018 -Thursday。
Let s Encrypt:如果要启用HTTPS,我们就需要从证书授权机构处获取一个证书,Let s Encrypt是一个证书授权机构。我们可以从 Let s Encrypt 获得网站域名的免费的证书。
certbot-auto certbot-auto是Let s Encrypt推出的获取证书的客户端,可以让我们免费快速地获取Let s Encrypt证书。
产品官网地址:https://certbot.eff.org/lets-encrypt/centos6-nginx
首先自己选择自己的服务器(nginx/apache等)和系统(centos/ubuntu等).下载对应系统服务器的客户端.
#下载客户端并增加可执行文件权限, certonly可以不加,不加的话就表示让客户端直接帮你修改nginx配置文件,加了就只生成证书自己再手动配置nginx.
[root@iZ282iltjiwZ https]wget https://dl.eff.org/certbot-auto
[root@iZ282iltjiwZ https]chmod a+x certbot-auto
[root@iZ282iltjiwZ https]# ./certbot-auto --nginx certonly
Saving debug log to /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log
Error while running nginx -c /etc/nginx/nginx.conf -t.
nginx: [emerg] open() "/etc/nginx/nginx.conf" failed (2: No such file or directory)
#上面的报错表示certbot-auto默认认为配置文件在/etc/nginx/nginx.conf路径,所以操作失败。因为certbot-auto会自动找到你服务里的所有域名,并按你需求对指定域名生成证书文件。这里就需要通过一个参数指定nginx.conf的路径。

IMPORTANT NOTES:
- Congratulations! Your certificate and chain have been saved at:
/etc/letsencrypt/live/fullchain.pem
Your key file has been saved at:
/etc/letsencrypt/live/privkey.pem
Your cert will expire on 2018-10-16. To obtain a new or tweaked
version of this certificate in the future, simply run certbot-auto
again. To non-interactively renew *all* of your certificates, run
"certbot-auto renew"
- Your account credentials have been saved in your Certbot
configuration directory at /etc/letsencrypt. You should make a
secure backup of this folder now. This configuration directory will
also contain certificates and private keys obtained by Certbot so
making regular backups of this folder is ideal.
- If you like Certbot, please consider supporting our work by:
Donating to ISRG / Let's Encrypt: https://letsencrypt.org/donate
Donating to EFF: https://eff.org/donate-le
如上命令如下,只需简单几个步骤就给服务器生成了证书文件,文件及意义如下:
privkey.pem : the private key for your certificate.
fullchain.pem: the certificate file used in most server software.
chain.pem : used for OCSP stapling in Nginx >=1.3.7.
cert.pem : will break many server configurations, and should not be used
without reading further documentation (see link below).
最后修改nginx配置文件:添加443端口支持,并添加以下配置到server中。重启即可:
ssl on;
ssl_certificate /path/fullchain.pem; #修改为上面fullchain.pem所在的路径
ssl_certificate_key /path/privkey.pem; #修改为上面privkey.pem所在的路径
ssl_session_timeout 5m;
ssl_ciphers ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE:ECDH:AES:HIGH:!NULL:!aNULL:!MD5:!ADH:!RC4;
ssl_protocols TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2;
ssl_prefer_server_ciphers on;
二、免费https服务certbot-auto的使用注意事项
publish:July 26, 2018 -Thursday 之前使用certbot-auto注册过多个域名,但在使用中也碰到了一些问题,第一是同一个域名注册有限制,因为第一次使用,重复进行了多次activate HTTPS,导致后来再使用时碰到如下提示:即超过了次数限制。
Waiting for verification...
Cleaning up challenges
An unexpected error occurred:
There were too many requests of a given type :: Error finalizing order :: too many certificates already issued for exact set of domains: 04007.cn: see https://letsencrypt.org/docs/rate-limits/
Please see the logfiles in /var/log/letsencrypt for more details.
查看详细的使用限制文档:https://letsencrypt.org/docs/rate-limits/ 有提示一个域名一周只能重复更新5次。
We also have a Duplicate Certificate limit of 5 certificates per week. A certificate is considered a duplicate of an earlier certificate if they contain the exact same set of hostnames, ignoring capitalization and ordering of hostnames. For instance, if you requested a certificate for the names [www.example.com, example.com], you could request four more certificates for [www.example.com, example.com] during the week. If you changed the set of names by adding [blog.example.com], you would be able to request additional certificates.
证书一定要针对指定的一个或多个域名,包括www也是要特别指定的,比如之前我注册了007.cn的https服务,但是访问http://7.3.3.6就是不行。
可以一次指定多个域名的证书,包括主域名和若干个二级域名,但一个证书最多只可以包含100个二级域名。
另外每周只能注册20个域名的证书,指的是一级域名。因此每周每个用户可以注册2000个唯一域名的证书。这个量对一般的用户已经足够了。
还有,certbot-auto注册的https证书有效期都只有一个月,但它提供了自动更新证书的方法,首先使用。
[root@iZ2811jiwZ https]/certbot-auto renew --dry-run
** DRY RUN: simulating 'certbot renew' close to cert expiry
** (The test certificates below have not been saved.)
Congratulations, all renewals succeeded. The following certs have been renewed:
/etc/letsencrypt/live/007.cn/fullchain.pem (success)
** DRY RUN: simulating 'certbot renew' close to cert expiry
** (The test certificates above have not been saved.)
尝试进行一次模拟证书更新操作,如果没有问题,就可以在定时任务里加上任务,每月更新二次。
0 0 1,15 * * ./path/to/certbot-auto renew
后记 :这是发表于2018年的博客文章,迁移至CSDN,但从目前的了解,这个免费的https工具好像进行了重大的变更改革,里面的方法可以做当参考和版本使用对比了解。
