The operating system my web server runs on is (include version):
Linux 16.04.2 LTS
My hosting provider, if applicable, is:
AWS EC2 AMI
I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don’t know):
Yes
I’m using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel):
No
The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version
or certbot-auto --version
if you’re using Certbot):
0.31.0
I feel this is a question a lot of people will be asking soon. AWS is updating RDS to use an updated SSL/TLS Certificate. This requires the client application to rotate certificates to the new CA-2019.
I have an EC2 instance that is using certbot for https, and runs node to connect to the RDS instance. If I update the RDS instance to use the new certificate, will certbot be compatible with that certificate? Do I need to do something to use the certificates provided by AWS?
This is my first encounter with certbot so please let me know if there are any misguided connections here, just trying to future proof my setup.
Here is a link to the aws docs that detail the changes I’m referring to: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/UsingWithRDS.SSL-certificate-rotation.html
