1. Sign the four request files we've generated (commands below).

The certificate authority wants to verify you control the domain
by serving a random string at a specific url.
Here's the commands (RUN THESE ANYWHERE ON YOUR SERVER):
------------
#Create a temporary self-signed cert
openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -days 365 -subj "/CN=a" -nodes -x509 -keyout a.key -out a.crt
#Serve the token on port 443

s.socket = ssl.wrap_socket(s.socket, keyfile='a.key', certfile='a.crt'); \\
s.serve_forever()"
------------
ALTERNATIVELY:
If you are already serving content over https, you can add the
token to your server config. A request to
https://{}/.well-known/acme-challenge/{}
should return the token "{}"
as the body.
TODO: apache and nginx configs showing how to do this.
