Side note, I need to run the renew script. I never got the warning email
That sucks. The renewal period is so short though, setting up a cron job to do it before expiration seems only sensible.
I have not setup a job yet because things keep changing with the process.
but now that it is out of beta officially, I should probably look at doing that.People have already published scripts for it. I've got a monthly one that I'm still waiting for the first run, so I don't know how well it works yet.

Right, but i have always had CloudFlare running in front of my stuff. I have to turn that off before I can run the scripts.

Does CloudFlare run like other system services? If you can run a command and have it turned on/off, then you can just add it to the script.... yeah, I actually created a script to put in a cron job rather than try to have it all on a one-liner in cron.

It is an external service, so you would need access to an API to do that.

Just a bit. You CAN turn it off easily by hand, run the script and turn it back on again.

I take it API access isn't something that's easy to do then?

Oh it might be. Might be trivial. I've never looked into it.

nope, those are old. New docs are https://api.cloudflare.com
Here is the specific answer.

For best alternative to Godaddy is ClickSSL It is very well known name in ssl industry for providing ssl certificate of rapidssl, geotrust, thawte etc. Great support found from their side to install my ssl certificate which made my installation easier.

The SSLS.COM site the @aaronstuder sent me to worked great as well.
And $5 a year as opposed to $12.
Also great support from their end as I messed something up during registration.
