ACME Management Server (ACMEMS): Now "Macen"

Deprecated: The software has been rename to "Macen"! Please, update to that one to receive future updates.

PyPI version Python Versions PyPi Status

LetsEncrypt supports issuing free certificates by communication via ACME - the Automatically Certificate Management Evaluation protocol.

This tools is yet another ACME client ... but as a client/server model.

Why yet another ACME client

Some aspects are special:

  • ACME handling can be put into own VM / container ...: The server can be placed into an own VM, container, network segment to limit the security risk on compromised systems.
  • Only the server requires all the ACME dependencies: The clients require only a SSL tool like OpenSSL and a HTTP client like wget or curl, no python, no build tools. Python with python-acme and its dependencies (PyOpenSSL, Cryptography, ...) is only needed for the server.
  • Supports distributed web servers: All .well-known/acme-challenges requests for all domains can be served directly by the server. This makes it easy to validate domains when using multiple web server in distributed or fail-over fashion by forwarding all .well-known/acme-challenges requests.
  • Only the server needs the ACME account information: It is not that security relevant, but only the ACME Management Server needs access to the account information / key for the ACME server like LetsEncrypt.
  • Caching CSR signs: The returned signed certificate of a CSR is cached until the certificate is nearly expired (per default two week). If two machines have manual shared a key and CSR and they reusing both, they will both get from ACMEMS the same certificate back.
