I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don’t know): Yes

Also wanted to mention I have about 7-8 other websites all running with valid certs already
Just for clarity all 7 other websites are listed on https://carl.host/ however I thought about trying to run the ./certbot renew command but wasn’t sure if that would technically prove or disprove anything.
