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.
