Please fill out the fields below so we can help you better. Note: you must provide your domain name to get help. Domain names for issued certificates are all made public in Certificate Transparency logs (e.g. crt.sh | example.com ), so withholding your domain name here does not increase secrecy, but only makes it harder for us to provide help.

My domain is:
thaumatized.com and luppopallas.com, and a bunch of subdomains

I ran this command:

sudo certbot certonly \
  --dns-cloudflare --dns-cloudflare-credentials /etc/letsencrypt/tokens/thaumatized.ini \
  -d "*.thaumatized.com" -d "thaumatized.com" \
  -d "thaumatized.fi" -d "www.thaumatized.fi" \
  -d "ankkapeli.fi" -d "www.ankkapeli.fi" \
  -d "pussyhub.fi" -d "www.pussyhub.fi" \
  --deploy-hook "/etc/letsencrypt/deploy-hooks/copy-to-apache.sh" \
  --dns-cloudflare-propagation-seconds 60 \
  --non-interactive --agree-tos --email valtari.junkkala@protonmail.com;

sudo certbot certonly \
  --dns-cloudflare --dns-cloudflare-credentials /etc/letsencrypt/tokens/luppopallas.ini \
  -d "luppopallas.com" -d "luppopallas.fi" -d "www.luppopallas.com" -d "www.luppopallas.fi" \
  --deploy-hook "/etc/letsencrypt/deploy-hooks/copy-to-apache.sh" \
  --dns-cloudflare-propagation-seconds 60 \
  --non-interactive --agree-tos --email valtari.junkkala@protonmail.com;

It produced this output:

My web server is (include version):
Server version: Apache/2.4.66 (Debian)
Server built: 2025-12-05T18:52:34

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version):
Debian 13.3.0

My hosting provider, if applicable, is:
N/A

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

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):
certbot 4.0.0

Sitation

I run several servers, which host the same site. For redundancy. Because of this I like to make the configs once and copy them over.

I run certbot with --cert-only, because otherwise it will comment out ssl field from the sites configs and add new fields with the same values. However, running certbot this way does not generate /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-apache.conf, meaning that the same config does not work. I would like to use this file as having defaults provided seems great, especially since I don't actively follow news to see if some of them would need changing.

Is there some convenient way to get certbot to generate this file, without modifying site configs?

Thanks in advance, Thaumatized

You can find the Certbot template at its github: certbot/certbot-apache/src/certbot_apache/_internal/tls_configs at main · certbot/certbot · GitHub

Certbot bases its options on the Intermediate level of this Mozilla configurator. You could use this directly: Mozilla SSL Configuration Generator
Set the versions for Apache and openssl to match your system

Don't choose OCSP since Let's Encrypt no longer uses that. I also do not recommend setting HSTS unless you are certain you know what it does. The link I provided above has those unchecked but the Mozilla default was to have those enabled. Certbot sets those depending on the options you use when running with --apache option.

I was a little confused by this comment. If you've gotten this once can't you just copy it to your other systems too? In any case, I've noted where you can find this above.

Thank you so much, this was very helpful.

I certainly could have just copied the file, but how would it ever get updated then? Altough that issues seems to have been shared by using the --apache option, as those of my servers that are already working are using an outdated version of this file.

With the information you gave me it should be relatively easy to create a maintenance script to get updates.

It is not clear to me when Certbot actually updates that options-ssl file. We know that --apache option will update your Apache config when first getting the cert. Even making a new port 443 VirtualHost if needed. But, the normal renew command does not update the Apache config. It will reload Apache when it gets a new cert.

But, does the options-ssl-apache actually get updated during renew? Seems it should if it is meant to reflect current recommendations. But, that introduces possibility of change in behavior of your server after a routine cert renewal. There was a recent PR that modified that file because it had a log setting that conflicted with some user log settings.

I think sometime last year the ciphers were updated in options-ssl to maintain consistency with Mozilla's recommendations. But, before that it had been some years without change.

Sounds like you have a handle on it. I think you could just use what Mozilla says and check it once a year or so for changes. Place those options in your own 'options' file and include that in all your servers.

Personally, I prefer to control my own server config so wouldn't use --apache option (if I still used Apache) or rely on its options. But, I understand its benefit to people just starting out and getting them running with reasonable options. Doesn't mean --apache is the best choice for everyone :slight_smile:

Yeah I think I will make my own config file as you recommend, seems it will be the easiest in the long run.

I don't think certbot updates the file for renewals, as I have a couple of servers already running with the file generated by apache and they had the old version still in use.

I suspect this file is going to see some more chances in the near future thanks to quantum computers.

Thanks again, this has been very helpful.
