Here is the command if you want a wildcard cert:
sudo certbot -i nginx -d "*.aaronstuder.com" -d aaronstuder.com --server https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory --manual --preferred-challenges dns -

@jaredbusch It's coming. Right now it just pauses and you update DNS manually, or you can use acme.sh

If you're using one reverse proxy to serve traffic to more than one server, do you typically put all of the configurations in one file, or have a main configuration file, and use
includeto reference other files? Methinks the way to go is just have one file with server blocks for however many servers you need. -

"Install nano because I prefer it over vi"
Nano really should just be the standard at this point, IMO.

I worded it like that to appease people like @scottalanmiller to prevent some stupid commentary about unneeded packages

I can't make fun. I prefer Vim. I've tried to use nano and I felt clunky. But to each their own. Just don't use emacs :upside-down_face:

I use vi/vim almost exclusively. I just enjoy poking fun at the people who are evangelical about it.

Given a choice, nano. I'm good with vi/vim as well tho, IRIX really required competency with it.

Nano is annoying, inconvenient, and much less efficient than using vim. I have no idea anymore why I used nano before, I strictly use vim now, and my life on Linux has never been better.

Everything you do in Nano can be done faster and more conveniently in Vim... that's been my personal experience for a while now.

Learn to use the Ctrl key, you know, that new key that was added to keyboards, but vim never got around to using

It's not needed... but does make use of the Ctrl key for a few things.
Easy example... In Nano, to save and close a file is a hassle. In Vim, Shift+ZZ, done. Quick and easy!
Want to find something? Open your file with Vim, hit
/and type what you want to find, hit enter... super easy! It's dumb in Nano. -

@tim_g Ctrl+X, Y to save a file. quicker than in vi/vim.
I can actually edit lines and insert text and cut and paste intuitively in nano, unlike vi which requires you to memorize the insert function to just add a simple word or two. Then you have to escape the insert function, then you have to remember what unnatural keyboard combo is to do something else.
CtrlW to find. Super simple, unlike vi/vim. -

CtrlW to find. Super simple, unlike vi/vim.CtrlW to go into another menu and find what you want is weird. I'd rather just type
/whateverand hit enter.If you want to insert text from clipboard, you go to where you want to insert something, and (rather intuitively), hit the
ibutton, because insert starts with "i", then paste it in like normal. In Fedora terminal windows anyways, it's ctrl+shift+v to paste. To exit insertion mode, it's theesckey... also rather intuitive, because escape.Want to remove some lines? Just hit
dd, and the line you're on goes away... hold it in to remove lots of lines. Or hit a number first then dd, and it removes that many lines (20ddremoves the next 20 lines). It's all so simple, but I can see the complexity of it if you have no idea about it.It's the whole oh I never used it before and don't know what to do because i don't have a GUI to show me.
Remove the GUI from Nano, and you're in the same boat... how the hell is Ctrl+W intuitive to "find" text? Less intuitive than to simply /TextToLookFor and hit enter.
Copy and paste is easy too... it uses y to copy (for "yank") and p for paste.
But you can do it by highlighting something (if in a gui terminal for example with your mouse) and ctrl+shift+c / v to copy and paste as well. -
So about that nginx reverse proxy...
