Hi,
[apologies if this question duplicates the earlier thread "Issue: Allow
ports other than 443"]
I was wondering whether people have considered services running on a
port other than port 443; in particular, ports greater than 1024.
One particular use-case is that some services run on a higher port as
they can (more easily) run as a non-root user, limited the danger if the
service is compromised.
As I understand it, Domain Validated certificates provide an assurance
about the DNS name of the asserted identity. It specifically makes no
claim who is running the service.
Therefore, there seems no reason to limit ACME to the traditionally
secure port number.
Cheers,
Paul.
