From 16f56e1c9b62e91f0c009eb03749a0276e45c9d4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Juan Batiz-Benet Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2015 01:17:44 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] init: lower default rsa key size to 2048 for now I think we should lower the default rsa key size to 2048 for now -- until we have a proper focus on securing everything. It's always a pain for new users to get hung on 4096 rsa key gen, when we have not even made sure we're using the keys perfectly correctly yet. (And 2048 is still considered secure) --- cmd/ipfs/init.go | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/cmd/ipfs/init.go b/cmd/ipfs/init.go index daab7f36f..fb506454c 100644 --- a/cmd/ipfs/init.go +++ b/cmd/ipfs/init.go @@ -18,7 +18,7 @@ import ( u "github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs/util" ) -const nBitsForKeypairDefault = 4096 +const nBitsForKeypairDefault = 2048 var initCmd = &cmds.Command{ Helptext: cmds.HelpText{
