Hello,

i installed Mail Gateway Proxmox 7 but the url of the dashboard is not secure.

How to install Lets Encrypt to have a secure connection?

Thank you in advanced.
 
The WebUI of PMG (and all other Proxmox products) always only listens on ssl-enabled ports and not plain-text (just for completeness sake).

to use a publicly trusted certificate you can use the ACME integration of PMG (or any of the other ACME clients, or even a commercial CA) - the steps and certificate locations are described in the reference documentation:
https://pmg.proxmox.com/pmg-docs/pmg-admin-guide.html#sysadmin_certificate_management

I hope this helps!
 
hi, i've just add letsencrypt from certificate menu using ACME Accounts as default , then i add domain of my pmg from ACME tab menu , after that i Order certificates now , and it's running automatically until done.

my question: i have to manual type the url like : https://pmg.mydomain.com:8006 to akses the pmg site.
is there any way to akses my pmg site with just typing "pmg.mydomain.com:8006" and it's automatically redirect to https://pmg.mydomain.com:8006 ?

please advice

This is something that your browser would need to do - and usually after visiting the page once it remembers the protocol.

In any case this is nothing PMG could do anything about

if you can reach the page with your browser, and if the browser does not show a warning about invalid/untrusted certificate I'd say - it works ;)
 
In the Certificates section of the Proxmox mail web interface I can only add/order the LE certificates for API and SMTP, how can manage the webserver running on port 8006 to use LE certificate instead of self generated? I can configure this manually of course, but how to do it correctly?

I already have a commercial certificate, next what do I need to do to apply the certificate to the dashboard url using SSL
