Automatic SSL Certificate Renewal by Certbot

   

Hey guys I've seen Let's Encrypt already installed on our shared hosting cPanel accounts! But That's not working perfectly in my case as I cannot select any domains to generate or re-generate keys. So I am using sslforfree for a while and very satisfied with the service but I was looking for a solution which could allow us to automatically renew the SSL certificates instead of renewing it after every two months manually. And I came up with this new thing called Certbot, I would like you guys to have a look on it (https://certbot.eff.org/). And see if  could help us with this thing to remove the hassle for renewing SSL certificates. All though in this encrypted world having SSL with every service you provide is essential and Thanks to Let's Encrypt team for making this feature free for us though if it's possible to solve the problem all automatically would be more great. It's recommend to run the cert renewal  command after every 6 hours a day and we can do that by cron job using 
0 */6 * * * /path/certbot-auto renew --quiet --no-self-upgrade
for ubuntu or 
Code:
0 */6* * * /usr/bin/certbot renew >> /var/log/le-renew.log
for centos
