Description:
Bit of a trick. A number of HPC Centers utilize automated certificate updates
that rely on an alias in the httpd config file. The portal takes anything in
the ssl block and passes them directly into the generated config. We can use
the configuration item ‘custom_vhost_directives’ to add the alias, and
then that alias exists in the final config.

i.e.

-'Alias /.well-known /var/www/ood/public/.well-known'

becomes

Alias /.well-known /var/www/ood/public/.well-known

and now your automated cert bot can find ./well-known
