Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/acme-dns/acme-dns/issues/165

When I follow the instructions (https://github.com/joohoi/acme-dns#installation) for Windows deployment I get the following error:

go get github.com/joohoi/acme-dns/...

github.com/joohoi/acme-dns

..\go\src\github.com\joohoi\acme-dns\main.go:22:2: undefined: syscall.Umask

Some research suggests that syscall.Umask does not exist in the Windows distro but I'm not sure how accurate that might be.

Please advise

Thank You

Update:

I remarked out lines 12 and 22 in the main.go file and I am at least able to compile.

I do seem to be a tad confused about one thing. in the config.cfg it notes:
domain = "auth.example.org"

Does this mean that I can only issue for subdomains for example.org or am I able to generate subdomains for any other domain such as abc123.com?

Thank You

The domain in the config is the domain for the service, you can provide auth for any domain though.
