Yes, this is how the http-01 verification method works. It allows Let's
Encrypt to verify that the certificate requester has as least this much
control of the site content.

Thanks. I'm aware of the function. One of the many places I've run into
it is in your qmail.cmd. The comment was to remind me to add the code to
add the checks, if needed, if the script ever escaped into the wild, which
seems to be happening. :-)

\etc\SSL has it's origins in the unix world. The directory never existed
on my systems, until ported Linux apps started to appear.

You have the option to override uacme's defaults with the --confdir switch
options. We decided it was easier to go wi the flow and change to using
the uacme defaults. Back when we were usin self-signed certs, we put them
in the apache conf directory and gave them unique names based on the
domain name.

The page format is pretty clean and the text size is easy to adjust.

I've had LASIK was was also an easy procedure.

That's a problem. As I understand it, there are still no really good
treatmen options.

The design of what? The WPS? You can change to font size of one session
without changing the size system wide. Use the Change button, not the
Save button.

This is where I find a tablet with a large screen handy. Another option
is to cast the phone screen to a Smart TV.
