This now doesn’t work on Centos 6. I’m using 6.10 and the error which I get is “Your system is not supported by certbot-auto anymore. Certbot cannot be installed.”

Please suggest

Do you have any clue to spot where is the problem, other info i installed centos with cis security profile at that time.

Thanks for your kind help.
