Maybe look at DNS request, but with Virtualmin you need it to handle the DNS.

hum it’s unrelated with DNS

For LE, either web validation or DNS validation is required to verify domain ownership:

• HTTP/web validation: the domain must resolve and serve the challenge file over the web (i.e., using the public_html directory).
• DNS validation: a specific TXT record must be created and publicly visible (this can work if Virtualmin manages your DNS).

There’s no other way to handle it.
