Well, that is working, somehow, except: If the LE server
addresses Host A, the challenge file is going to be retrieved
instantaneously. If the LE server addresses Host B, only every
*other* request is being served instantaneously:

        1. access: immediately download
        2. access: 60 s wait, then download
        3. access: immediately download
        4. access: 60 s wait, then download
        etc.


Hmm, default proxy_connect_timeout is 60s, I know. But why every
other connect?

You are using "proxy_pass http://local-at-host-A.lan;"; in your
configuration.  What are the IP addresses it resolves to?

The behaviour observed suggests that the name resolves to 2
different addresses, so nginx uses round-robin to balance between
these addresses, and only one of these addresses is reacheable.

Bingo! I had had two issues in that regard: My local resolver returned one IPv4 and on IPv6 address for local-at-host-A.lan, and in my server block I had had an include statement with listen statements for IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. (Those were left-overs I didn't bear in mind when removing IPv6 functionality for that given nginx server.)

Now, everything is working as expected. Thank you very much for pointing me to the right direction!

With kind regards,
Michael
