There is a plugin for using a temporary webserver (standalone) and there
are manual ways.  I tend to use the certonly/webroot because it's easy
and does not mess around with whatever webserver your running.

  sudo letsencrypt certonly --webroot -w <webroot> -d <domain> [ -d .. ]

Might be good to put up a page at dns-resolver.bortzmeyer.org with a bit
of information about the resolver and that would solve getting a cert
from Let's Encrypt.

Cheers,
Jerry
