I didn't think that you could auto-renew with letsencrypt - Don't you need to provide a new DNS TXT record each time to show that you actually own the domain?

Or is that the bit that you have set up automagically

if your registrar supports it you can give it api access and it will create the txt entry and delete it after as part of the renewal. look up acme.sh and you can see if it supports your registrar.

I didn't think to look for an API solution. Nice one - thanks.

After a lot of fannying about - I now have it all set up.

I'm using certbot, so acme.sh confused me for a bit, until I found an authenticator script that played nicely with my host & with certbot.
