SSL certificates on Synology behind double firewall

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. https://crt.sh/?q=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: www.pasithea.be

I ran this command:

  • Tried Synology certificate but doesn't work behind double firewall (and no, I can not get rid of that, sorry, would make my life much easier too ) with double port fwd
  • Tried installing certbot but can't find synology as device OS.... any alternative ?
  • Tried playing with acme.sh but my domain provider is not listed and I am not skilled enough to program it myself.

It produced this output:

My web server is (include version): apache 2.4

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): Synology DSM 6

My hosting provider, if applicable, is: level27.be voor DNS records, I host my website on my home synology nas

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

I'm using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel):
Euh, yeah, the one provided by level27.be I suppose ?

The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version or certbot-auto --version if you're using Certbot): failed to install for now on my synology

Would appreciate some help. I tried configuring my synology in the internet facing firewall but they are not in the same domain so my ISP router (Technicolor) doesn't accept it . So I put my 2nd firewall, but that port 80 points to its own management web page.

Please help. Tx in advance.

Welcome Back to the Let's Encrypt Community, Kris :slightly_smiling_face:

Have you considered just using a dns-01 challenge (instead of the http-01 challenge you are trying to use) to prove control of the domain name that your NAS uses?

Synology NAS have a built-in menu choice to get an LE cert:
Control Panel | Security | Certificate

The typical problem is that Synology runs HTTP on port 5000 and HTTPS on 5001.
So one of your NATs may have to accommodate 80 > 5000 to validate via HTTP.
OR
You could hack the web server config and add:
Listen 80
