With Dehydrated (and LigHTTPd), Let's Encrypt certificates can be created and updated automatically.

Creating a Certificate⚓︎

• Configure LigHTTPd so it is reachable from the internet under the DynDNS name via HTTP (check with the "webproxy" page).
• Fill in the Dehydrated "Options" accordingly (email is optional).
• Run rc.dehydrated init.
• Run the displayed command for one-time registration.
• Run rc.dehydrated init again.

Using the Certificate⚓︎

• In LigHTTPd under "advanced", enter an HTTPS vhost with the paths to the certificate.
• Or enter ssl.pem and fullchain.pem through the LigHTTPd WebIF.
• Even better, if only one domain is used, link the Dehydrated certificates like this:
  

  rm -f /tmp/flash/lighttpd/ca.pem
  ln -s /var/media/ftp/.. ../dehydrated/DOMAIN/fullchain.pem /tmp/flash/lighttpd/ca.pem
  rm -f /tmp/flash/lighttpd/crt.pem
  ln -s /var/media/ftp/.. ../dehydrated/DOMAIN/ssl.pem  /tmp/flash/lighttpd/crt.pem
  modsave
  rc.lighttpd restart
