This allows to set the default bit size for all the Diffie-Hellman parameters defined in security.dhparams.params and it's particularly useful so that we can set it to a very low value in tests (so it doesn't take ages to generate). Regardless for the use in testing, this also has an impact in production systems if the owner wants to set all of them to a different size than 2048, they don't need to set it individually for every params that are set. I've added a subtest to the "dhparams" NixOS test to ensure this is working properly. Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@nix.build>
Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the Hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-18.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-18.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
