Backup /etc/letsencrypt directory with rsync from remote server to local machine
$ mkdir letsencrypt_backup
$ cd letsencrypt_backup
$ rsync -chavP --stats root@redacted_IP_address:/etc/letsencrypt .
I found this rsync command online first, modified it and checked on the forum of Let’s Encrypt to see what other users thought. The feedback I got was to pass an option that preserves symlinks, so either -l
, or -a
which enables it.
Run man rsync
to see what each option does.

About technologies and epistemology.
Meaning, technologies can foster agency. No doubt. But I am also asking:
Can technologies make us blind?
