When performing domain validation, will the Let’s Encrypt backend support querying servers over IPv6?

This is correct for WWW Users but will be complete different if the cert is allowed for client/mail authentication. In this case the OV certificate can fulfill legal requirements as an replace for signature on legal documents. And also there is no chance to use an DV cert for MS code signing while…

well okay that again makes sense. but what doesnt make sense is that EV certs are not for business entites and what makes even less sense is that iirc .onion shall require EV certs, which essentially kicks out the most important userbase of TOR…

Guys can we limit the conversation to LE IPv6 related info please? It’s not great watching a thread and being sent notifications about unrelated topics.

Any update on IPv6-only hosts verification? (using Apache plug-in) This is for a mirror of http://test-ipv6.com which loads some tests images from IPv4-only and IPv6-only sites. See below: Failed authorization procedure. ipv6.test-ipv6.vyncke.org (tls-sni-01): urn:acme:error:unknownHost :: The …

We’re getting closer! We’ve got an allocation, and now need to do some configuration work on the server side. We’ll announce here when it’s ready. We’re excited about IPv6 too!

Is there any idea of the horizon when ipv6 will be available? Are we talking week of months? /Henning

No timeframe AFAIK. The two biggest hurdles were being assigned a block (done) and configuring/securing it (in progress). There’s no knowing how long that may take unless a staff member posts something (which they’re not inclined to do since it’s not high priority so could get bumped for more seriou…

Hi all, I just wanted to ask if/suggest that someone is monitoring the logs for http-01 validation to see how frequently one fails with the error "“detail”:"No IPv4 addresses found for ", to help guage the audience that would benefit from this enhancement. Most likely folks who encounter this fail…

Good idea, @FliesLikeABrick . Filed an issue .
