| 435 | + The size of the compiled-in DH parameters has been increased from 1024 |
| 436 | + to 2048 bits, making DH key exchange more resistent to a brute-force |
| 437 | + attack. However, some old SSL implementations, notably some revisions of |
| 438 | + Java Runtime Environment version 6, will not accept DH parameters longer |
| 439 | + than 1024 bits, and will not be able to connect over SSL. As a |
| 440 | + work-around, you can use custom 1024-bit DH parameters, instead of the |
| 441 | + compiled-in defaults. See <xref linkend="guc-ssl-dh-params-file"> for |
| 442 | + information on using custom DH parameters. |
