Frequently Asked Questions

Unable to retrieve certificates from LetsEncrypt / Error 400 / Timeout error (likely firewall problem)

LetsEncrypt is not able to contact your server for verification of domain ownership.

  1. You need to own a registered domain (use Namecheap for example). Let's say you registered a domain mydomain.com and your external server where Evilginx is installed is at IP 123.123.123.123.
  2. In domain configuration you need to add custom nameservers. Add ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com nameservers and set both to point to IP 123.123.123.123.
  3. Change option for the domain to use Custom Nameservers and set the nameserver names to ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com.

Now Evilginx server will properly respond to any DNS requests coming from the outside and will handle the resolution of any subdomains that you need to manage for your phishlets.
