   letencrypt.js support command-line options too:

   I'm not having issues. When I check your domain with this tool:   
   https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=capitolcityonline.net   
   it reports that you have a Certificate name mismatch, clicking ignore/continue   
   it then reports that it's self-signed.   
      
   If I try https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=capcity2.synchro.net   
   it also reports a self-signed cert. So it definitely seems like the   
   certificate being sent out doesn't match your letsyncrypt.cfg.   
      
   One thing you can do is disable self-signed cert generation by setting   
   SCFG->System->Security->Create Self-signed Certificate to "No".
