dehydrated-nsupdate
===================
---------------------------------------
dehydrated hook for dns-01 verification
---------------------------------------
:manual section: 1
:manual group: Open Infrastructure
Synopsis
========
| **dehydrated-nsupdate**
Description
===========
**dehydrated** is a client for ACME-based Certificate Authorities, such as LetsEncrypt. It can be used to request and obtain TLS certificates from an ACME-based certificate authority.
The **dehydrated-nsupdate** hook implements the dns-01 verification. It is typically run together with **dehydrated-hook** as:
|
| /etc/dehydrated/hook.d/deploy_challenge.nsupdate
| /etc/dehydrated/hook.d/clean_challenge.nsupdate
Features
========
**dehydrated-nsupdate** has the following features:
Automatic nameserver detection (IPv4 and IPv6)
----------------------------------------------
dehydrated-nsupdate automatically finds and updates all authoritative nameservers for a given record by looking up the records in the DNS by itself, supporting IPv6-only, IPv4-only, and dual-stacked environments.
Proper CNAME support
--------------------
dehydrated-nsupdate follows CNAMEs delegating the TXT record update to another zone.
Handling nameserver subzone shortcuts
-------------------------------------
dehydrated-nsupdate correctly handles authoritative nameserver answers that (wrongly) give shortcut answers for their own zones when using multiple authoritative subzones on the same nameservers.
TSIG support
------------
dehydrated-nsupdate uses TSIG, if provided, to authenticate itself to the nameserver. Additionally to a global TSIG to be used for all record updates, separate TSIGs can individually be specified per record, per zone, and per nameserver.
Proper removal of TXT records
-----------------------------
dehydrated-nsupdate removes records after succesfull verification.
bind9-dnsutils and knot-dnsutils support
----------------------------------------
dehydrated-nsupdate works with both nsupdate (bind9) and knsupdate (knot).
IDN handling
------------
dehydrated-nsupdate works with IDN domains by not expanding the punycode to update the correct records.
Usage
=====
dehydrated-hook(1) is a prerequisite for dehydrated-nsupdate.
Installation
------------
| sudo echo CHALLENGETYPE="dns-01" > /etc/dehydrated/conf.d/zz-challengetype.sh
| sudo ln -s /usr/bin/dehydrated-nsupdate /etc/dehydrated/hook.d/deploy_challenge.nsupdate
| sudo ln -s /usr/bin/dehydrated-nsupdate /etc/dehydrated/hook.d/clean_challenge.nsupdate
Removal
-------
| sudo rm -f /etc/dehydrated/conf.d/zz-challengetype.sh
| sudo rm -f /etc/dehydrated/hook.d/deploy_challenge.nsupdate
| sudo rm -f /etc/dehydrated/hook.d/clean_challenge.nsupdate
Configuration
=============
Depending on the nameserver requirements, dehydrated-nsupdate can send record updates either unauthenticated or using a TSIG (recommended).
A TSIG file consists of one single line containing the key (nsupdate/knsupdate do not allow comments), e.g.:
|
| hmac-sha512:example:/LXPy6U8HAWA+QmvulZWm0owsQgNf8qJ5MNLTvirzvVtDb+PzLKoBmVHjnL6TUffkvRYa7Do448dSIrAuJ1G/A==
Instead of using a global TSIG for all record update, specific TSIGs can be used individually per record, zone, and nameserver.
The lookup hierarchy is the following (first match wins):
|
| /etc/dehydrated/tsig/${record}.key
| /etc/dehydrated/tsig/${zone}.key
| /etc/dehydrated/tsig/${nameserver}.key
| /etc/dehydrated/tsig.key
|
| TSIG_KEYFILE variable in /etc/default/dehydrated-nsupdate/*
| TSIG_KEYFILE variable in /etc/default/dehydrated-nsupdate
In order to explicitly not use a TSIG for a specific record, zone, or nameserver, an empty keyfile or a keyfile with only comments can be used, e.g.:
|
| echo "# disabled" > /etc/dehydrated/tsig/ns1.example.org.key
Files
=====
The following files are used:
/etc/dehydrated/tsig.key:
default location for global TSIG key to be used.
/etc/dehydrated/tsig/${record}.key, /etc/dehydrated/tsig/${zone}.key, /etc/dehydrated/tsig/${nameserver}.key:
default locations for specific TSIG keys to be used individually per record, zone, or nameserver.
/etc/default/dehydrated-nsupdate, /etc/default/dehydrated-nsupdate.d/\*:
configuration file, currently only used for TSIG_KEYFILE variable pointing to the location of the global TSIG key to be used (default: /etc/dehydrated/tsig.key).
