I have seen complaints about this command several times. On some systems, base64 -D works, on others, base64 -d is expected... So maybe the correct fix should be base64 --decode, which seems more portable.

I agree, please use the most platform-independent version of the command. Also --decode makes it more clear what the command is supposed to be doing.

Now you can use `server.crt` and `server-key.pem` as the keypair to start
