What is it you are concerned about there?

The dhparam warnings are from over 2H ago and conflicting name even longer ago. I assume those are fixed from our suggestions. Yes? No?

I just ran that now and say that ssl_dhparam was duplicated again so I didn't know if that was a problem

Later than at 17:01 timestamp?

If so, show output of this again with uppercase T

sudo nginx -T
