Per https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/beta-program-announcements/1631 there are rate limits in Private Beta. This thread was closed. What will be rate limits in Public Beta, if any?

Guys, this 5 in 7 days limit is really frustrating and not usable for us… Our usecase is that we have subdomain for each of our customers, f.e. customer1.mydomain.com customer2.mydomain.com customer3.mydomain.com … And each of them has an own server and we need for each of them a seperate subd…

The limits will likely be adjusted once the service leaves public beta. I know they also stated they are working on a form/process to lift the limit for certain purposes. It’ll likely be an announcement in this forum once it’s up. If you’re issuing subdomains to customers, you may want to add the d…

@motoko is incredibly polite and makes quite the understatement. I can’t emphasize enough just how dangerous it is to operate sub-domains underneath a common domain unless that domain is included in the Public Suffix List. While TLS encryption and proper partitioning of domains are admittedly addre…

Thank you @gutschke - in our specific case this is not a major problem, since we are not just giving out domains, but each of them has web app of our service running (and our customers cant change content there and dont have direct server access). But I see your point and you are absolutely right, t…

I am not entirely clear on just how quickly either browser vendors or LetsEncrypt are going to pick up changes to the Public Suffix List. Common sense would suggest that there is likely a couple of months latency. But I’d love to be proven wrong. As soon as the changes are picked up by browsers, se…

[image] Lichtamberg: Does the public suffix list help with the 5 in 7 days rate limit itself? Or was this just a suggestion for the overall security? Thanks for your feedback! If your goal is just be included in the PSL because of LE and you don't care about the other reasons, then my recomme…

Have you tried issuing multi-domain certificates, 50 customers to a certificate?

You mean, you give all your customers a copy of the private key (or the logical equivalent)? That doesn’t particularly instill me with confidence that the site provides anything other than security theater. Web security is tricky enough as is. Please don’t intentionally break security … or suggest …

[image] gutschke: But hosting different trust domains under the same certificate is not usually one of these reasons. Depends if the customer has access to the private keys anyway.. Look at CloudFlare.. They have certificates with a HUGE number of different sites in their certificates.. Now, …

Hello, I have the error: Too many certificates already issued for… But in the last seven days, i have’nissued 5 certificates! There is a way to count the rate limit? My first certificate was on 28/01/2016! Thanks for your help.

If your goal is just be included in the PSL because of LE and you don't care about the other reasons, then my recommendation is wait for the override form.
