Topic: using nsupdate to create TXT records for letsencrypt and DKIM

by joseadias on Wednesday, March 16, 2022
Hello.I'm trying to automate letsencrypt cert creation via dnsThis is what I'm sending to nsupdate: server api.dynu.com zone example.com update add _acme-challenge.example.com 30 IN TXT "blahblahblah" key hmac-md5:example.com ==SomeRandomTokenValue== send quitit is returning success. My TSIG token is recent and valid. rc=0My problem is that when I query dns via dig/nslookup/web-site the record is not there. I also don't see any updates in any of the logs that I've found at dynu.com.Does anybody have any experience with this? Is something missing from somewhere?
