Hi guys, Basically, I can't get Let's Encrypt to create a certificate. I've done all the right things, port forwarding 80/443/5001 to NAS, HTTPS redirect enabled, URL is pointed to my static IP, which has been tested and works (go to ftp://talentedvoice.net and you will see a login screen). Time …

I agree with @JuergenAuer that this: [Screenshot_20201011-093452_Samsung Internet] and this: [Screenshot_20201011-093636_Samsung Internet] are quite different. The latter is a basic access authentication prompt while the former is a Synology login page. Something is clearly amiss here.

That's [image] griffin: As @JuergenAuer already mentioned earlier, the redirect you have on port 80 is going to cause you problems. wrong. The redirect isn't the problem. The there running Server: lighttpd/1.4.55 is the problem, so DSM can't use the port 80 external. [image] TheTod…

Fair enough Juergen. I can see that if the lighttpd instance were completely taken out of the way on port 80 so that the nginx instance of Synology were operating on port 80 then the redirect coming from lighttpd would be irrelevant. FYI: In English, beginning a response with "that's wrong" (even …

Hey Griffin, For what it's worth, I concur. Juergen's first post was enough to make me want to give up on the spot. And yes, I felt he was being somewhat rude with his compositions. Like... "Don't be an idiot. Can't you see what's wrong? Read this. Everybody knows this..." I knew he was 100% corr…

If you knew exactly how to do it already, you wouldn't have ever been here and I wouldn't be writing this now. Funny old world! :grin: We're here to help everyone (who doesn't have evil things in mind).

In regards to the help, my advice (for what it's worth) would be to check which ports are forwarding to where, both in your device and possibly in your router. The answer almost certainly lies there somewhere. You could also use dns validation and skip the http validation entirely.

OK guys...I figured this out....at least, I know what the issue is. I run a Dual WAN Cisco router, so I'm using Policy Binding for traffic shaping. I wanted to use my fast internet connection for the file server (WAN 2). So, using Policy Binding, I directed ports 22 and 21 to use WAN 2. The serve…

Funny world indeed......overall, you guys seem all very nice here :slight_smile:

THAT is what we like to hear. :slightly_smiling_face:

Glad you found a path though. Once you create and can see the following file from outside, you're in business: http://talentedvoice.net/.well-known/acme-challenge/test
