Filezilla Server Lets Encrypt Cert
Posted: 2024-04-04 04:04
Hi folks
I have a small 2022 server that I use for a few web apps that I built and my personal Plex server. I already have a "Lets Encrypt" certificate for my dynamic DNS domain that I would like to use in Filezilla. I have certbot automatically updating my certificates every 90 days. I already have a script setup to update both my website and my plex server utilizing openssl so it uses the certificate that is already generated and automatically updates to the new certificate every 90 days. I'd like to use the similar/same method to enable encryption for my filezilla server. I'm lost on the setup. I am trying to use the "FTP and FTP over TLS (FTPS). I state that I want to provide a X.509 Certificate, I have tried entering both the archive and live version of C:\Certbot\live\MYDNSDOMAIN\privkey.pfx, cert.pem, chain.pem, fullchain.pem, privkey.pem, and even tried the privacy.p12 I use for my plex server and cannot get filezilla to accept it. I'm guessing I'm not using the right combination, it tells me "Couldn't get certificate extra information". Is there some openssl command I have to use to generate a Filezilla Server compatible certificate, or can someone point me to the correct combination of private/certificate file to use. Can Filezilla use symlink, or like my plex server, do I need to have a specific place for filezilla to load the pem/pfx/p12 file for this to work.
Thanks in advance.
