# Rule for legitimate ACME Challenge requests (like /.well-known/acme-challenge/xxxxxxxxx)
# We use ^~ here, so that we don't check other regexes (for speed-up). We actually MUST cancel
# other regex checks, because in our other config files have regex rule that denies access to files with dotted names.

# Since this is for letsencrypt authentication of a domain and they do not give IP ranges of their infrastructure
# we need to open up access by turning off auth and IP ACL for this location.

# Set correct content type. According to this:
# https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/using-the-webroot-domain-verification-method/1445/29
# Current specification requires "text/plain" or no content header at all.
# It seems that "text/plain" is a safe option.

# /var/www/common/letsencrypt/.well-known/acme-challenge/

# Hide /acme-challenge subdirectory and return 404 on all requests.
# It is somewhat more secure than letting Nginx return 403.
# Ending slash is important!
