so tried to use “Let’s Encrypt” to get a signed certificate. Am behind an isp dynamic ip. do have an ddns domain name that matches that ip address. however “Let’s Encrypt” expects a running http server at that address, which right now there is not. I am not sure I understand why all this certificate stuff to run a pbx using an ITSP. Guess I don’t understand why anyone would need encrypted external access to the freepbx server. I am beginning to think what I wanted to try just isn’t possible. Maybe someone can point me in the right direction. Thanks.
