Hi guys!

I’m a bit…frustrated with the inconsistencies of duckdns.org. Don’t take me wrong, I seriously appreciate the easiness and the free service they have provided over the years. But I’m considering to have a second account with FreeDNS. How would I add it to my servers? The main one is a nginx server with certbot, that serves the current myserver1, myserver2, myserver3.mydomain.duckdns.org urls. Once registered mydomain.afraid.org, what changes should I do to make nginx serve also the new myserver1.mydomain.afraid.org and so on?

Thanks!

    Assuming I understood your scenario, Canonical name record pointing one DNS name to another domain, then recreate your letsencrypt on the host.

      Recreate? Sorry but what about the old one? I’m not ready to turn the old one off just yet, I’d like both to be active. Thanks!

        You can create a canonical name (CNAME) record to point to your old domain, you don’t need to recreate the LE if you don’t want to.
