From another server everything is ok

Hi @intervisionlord

then ask your hoster. Looks like your server can't talk with Letsencrypt.

Then 10.* is a private address, not a public ip.

However, this could also be a problem with Let’s Encrypt’s CDN.

And even some colocated servers have NAT with a private IP address (with port forwarding from a public address).

@intervisionlord, should we assume you also can’t make TCP connections to this service with a Let’s Encrypt client or with curl? Is there anything about this hosting environment that intends to restrict outbound connections in any way?
