Certbot, nginx, OL8, 'failed to authenticate' - invalid response from acme-challenge

The machine is known as azurewe1548.azureexternal.dnvgl.com within our network (we have a lump of MS Azure maintained as an internal resource).

apex-test.dnv.com is the 'Internet' name assigned to the server and the one that I'm trying to get the certificate for.

The server is sat behind a load balancer.
