Posh-ACME 3.6.0

New plugins and self-hosted http challenges

Ryan Bolger

Just shipped a new Posh-ACME release, version 3.6.0. This one has a bunch of new stuff including new plugins for Domeneshop, Dreamhost, EasyDNS, and freedns.afraid.org. The other big addition is a new function called Invoke-HttpChallengeListener which can be super handy for people doing HTTP challenges. It’s basically a self-contained webserver that will respond to requests for the HTTP challenges in your order so you don’t have manually deal with making the challenge files available. Check out the wiki page, How To Self Host HTTP Challenges, for an in-depth guide on using it.

Updated versions can be found in the PowerShell Gallery or GitHub. Installation instructions are in the Readme.
