[arch-general] dovecot - Generate DH parameters (wiki vs. journal output mismatch)

[David C. Rankin]

All,

  The wiki https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dovecot#Generate_DH_parameters
shows:

Generate DH parameters

To generate a new DH parameters file (this will take very long):

# openssl dhparam -out /etc/dovecot/dh.pem 4096


  The journal message shows:

dd if=/var/lib/dovecot/ssl-parameters.dat bs=1 skip=88 | openssl dhparam
-inform der > /etc/dovecot/dh.pem

(which takes a fraction of a second)

  Why the difference? It doesn't seem to matter.
