Hey everyone! I'm trying to find a way to utilize Let's Encrypt certificates throughout our environment, which mainly consists of a few public servers, internal printers, and various network devices that run web servers. My ultimate aim is to eliminate those annoying browser security pop-ups that everyone just clicks through and to automate the renewal process, likely using PowerShell. We're strictly a Windows environment with no Linux servers, which seems to limit our options significantly. I've looked into solutions like CertifyTheWeb and win-acme, but I've found that they don't support DNS validation for Network Solutions or Encirca. Does anyone have suggestions for Windows-compatible solutions that work with these DNS providers?

Check out the Let's Encrypt client options for Windows; you might find something there that fits your needs. Also, consider using the DNS provider's API with generic options in the ACME client. Keep an eye on DNS-PERSIST-01; it could help simplify things for you!
I've been through that list, but none of those clients support Encirca or Network Solutions for DNS challenges. I might switch to a different DNS provider like Cloudflare since most clients support it. Diving into the API options is next for me, but I'm not very savvy with APIs, so I'm hoping to avoid that if possible. I’ll check out DNS-PERSIST-01 too!
