I’m yummed up, I just didn’t regenerate a new key – the SSL provider was using the previous year’s request, which at the time, was 1024.  All good.

Hi Darrell,

We already switched BlueOnyx to 2048bit keys two months ago:

http://devel.blueonyx.it/trac/browser/BlueOnyx/5106R/ui/base-ssl.mod/glue/handlers/SSL.pm

So if you (re)generate a SSL Cert or make a cert request, then it'll be done in 2048 bit if you're fully yum updated.

As for making the key strength selectable: Yeah, maybe. I'll add it to the whish-list.
