May it be you mix up things? The key is just a random number. It can be used with ciphers but you don't use ciphers to generate a key. Neither a symmetric nor an asymmetric one. There are algorithms (no ciphers) which determine whether a random number is suitable as asymmetric key but that's probably not what you mean. > Also, does anyone know a way to make AES256 & SHA256 the default cipher/hash > combo for --symmetric encryption?
