Is there a current one? The reason I ask is I'm
trying to install OpenSearch and ended up going down a rabbit hole with self-signed
certificates per their instructions. I'm operating on the ragged edge of how well I
understand how certificates work ☹️. If there was a WMF cert I could drop in, that would
be great.
Instead of having a certificate in your VM, I would suggest using the
web proxy [1] provided by Cloud VPS. In this way, traffic from the
internet to the web proxy is secured by the proxy's own SSL
certificate, while traffic from the web proxy to your Cloud VPS
instance does not use SSL at all. This means you need to disable SSL
in OpenSearch, and let the proxy handle it.
