This will configure an Asustor NAS running ADM 5 to use a letsencrypt issued certificate without exposing the NAS to the internet (by using DNS Challenge instead of using port forwarding). To accomplish this, we need to use certbot with DNS-01 challenge to Cloudflare. To perform this task, you must SSH into the NAS.

1. Elevate the terminal to root

sudo su

2. Setup the required directories

Installing cloud-init on a fresh Raspbian Lite image

This is a work in Progress!

Purpose

This mainly demonstrates my goal of preparing a Raspberry Pi to be provisioned prior to its first boot. To do this I have chosen to use the same cloud-init that is the standard for provisioning servers at Amazon EC2, Microsoft Azure, OpenStack, etc.

I found this to be quite challenging because there is little information available for using cloud-init without a cloud. So, this project also servers as a demonstration for anyone on any version of Linux who may want to install from source, and/or use without a cloud. If you fall into that later group, you probably just want to read the code. It's bash so everything I do, you could also do at the command line. (Even the for loop.)
