Free SSL certs with Lets Encrypt

Using the win-acme tool we can now get free SSL certificates that are issued by LetsEncrypt - the win-acme tool also creates a scheduled task to renew the certificates automatically as they expire after only 3 months.

It is already downloaded to some of our servers, however the download link is: https://www.win-acme.com/

The tool can be found in the my documents folder on servers that are already using it.

To use it, just run the executable - usually press N to create a new certificate, it will present a list of the current IIS virtual hosts so remember the number next to the one you are interested in and press SPACE to scroll to the next page or untill you reach the end.

Then entere the number you remembered and it will present you with a list of bindings - again enter the number you are interested in and press ENTER - follow any prompts it gives you - and that's it, the SSL should now be created.
