I would like to use this service, but I do not want a program to do things for me on my server unless it's part of the OS distribution, so this will help. Why do you need sudo to serve a file though? Is it a restricted port?

Hopefully the Let's Encrypt client will be part of most server operating systems in the future, too!

Reading the code, it seems the file is served on port 443 (HTTPS).
