Install a letsencrypt certificate on RadyNAS 6.10.5 hotfix 1
Hi, my apache2 pem file somehow got corrupted with the upgrade to ReadyNAS OS 6.10.5, so I bit the bullet and fixed it by installing a letsencrypt certificate using acme.sh As it might help others (...

Thanks for this rather simple method of installing a certificate on the ReadyNAS. I'm sure it wiull help many.
You should actually SSH in as root, which eliminates the need for su. Note that this only works if you have a domain name assigned, you can't just make one up. Most home users will not have one.

I usually disable ssh as root everywhere, so didn't even think about it... :)
And yes, for letsencrypt you need a registered domain and a DNS provider (I use cloudflare).
