{{warning box| The original protocol used by Let’s Encrypt for certificate issuance and management is called ACMEv1. In March of 2018 Letsencrypt introduced support for ACMEv2, a newer version of the protocol that matches what was finalized today as RFC 8555 328. They have been encouraging subscribers to move to the ACMEv2 protocol.
 +
 +
In March 2019 they announced an end of life plan for ACMEv1.
 +
 +
In November of 2019 they will stop allowing new account registrations through their ACMEv1 API endpoint. '''IMPORTANTLY''' Existing accounts will continue to function normally.
 +
 +
In June of 2020 they will stop allowing new domains to validate via ACMEv1.
 +
 +
Starting at the beginning of 2021 they will occasionally disable ACMEv1 issuance and renewal for periods of 24 hours, no more than once per month (OCSP service will not be affected). The intention is to induce client errors that might encourage subscribers to update to clients or configurations that use ACMEv2.
 +
 +
Renewal failures should be limited since new domain validations will already be disabled and we recommend renewing certificates 30 days before they expire.
 +
 +
In June of 2021 they will entirely disable ACMEv1 as a viable way to get a Let’s Encrypt certificate.}}

{{Note box|Creation of a new certificate requires the API being set to V2, see warning box above}}
 +
 +
===V2 API===
 +
With the latest version of letsencrypt/dehydrated the V2 API is needed to create new certificates, V1 is depreciated for creation of new certificates however is still valid for existing certificates created with it.
 +
 +
The key is called API. It will default to '1' if left unset. Options are '1', '2', 'auto'
 +
 +
For updating current V1 certificates leave as default or set to 1, auto

If this runs without errors, try to connect to your server-manager page.  You should see an error that the security certificate wasn't issued by a trusted certification authority; this is perfectly normal.  However, there should be a certificate, it should include all the hostnames you wanted included, and it should be valid for the next ninety days.  If this was successful, proceed to production.

The dehydrated client can be used to obtain certificates for other servers on your network, if the hostnames resolve (from outside your network) to your SME Server.  Here's how to do this using the smeserver-letsencrypt contrib.

====Hosts and Domains====

{{Note box| This section is not necessary as far as I am aware. You should just be able to set a host with "HostType local" and an InternalIP address as letsencryptSSLcert enabled and then regenerate domains.txt}}
    
You'll need to create two template fragments: one to add your hostname to /etc/dehydrated/domains.txt, and the second to handle the certificate once it's generated.  To create the first, do

====Hook Script deployment====
    
The second template fragment will be a portion of the hook script, so the dehydrated client knows what to do with this certificate.  This must be present, otherwise dehydrated will configure your SME server to use this certificate rather than the certificate for the SME Server.
