Hello, I submitted this patch almost 2 months back.

Product: Documentation Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Keywords: patch Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Documentation Assignee: [email protected] Reporter: [email protected] Keywords: patch Created attachment 155478 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=155478&action=edit Patch for openssl chapter in handbook. The current SSL key generation chapter contains a few inaccuracies and the generated keys are not up to date with today's standards. This patch shows how to generate secure keys and includes a good place for more information, namely the openssl cookbook. Mainly: - Use RSA for key generation, instead of DSA. - Fix documentation that lied about generation an RSA key while it actually was DSA. - Use SHA256 for signatures instead of older SHA1: http://blog.chromium.org/2014/09/gradually-sunsetting-sha-1.html - Use recommended 2048 bits instead of 1024.
