portal.mozz.us is using openssl 1.0.2k from the Centos 7 repo [0],
which is still supported, but old enough that it doesn't include
ed25519.

Yeah, that doesn't surprise me too much. I am a little surprised that

it's newer (1.1.1d) in Debian stable, but it's probably just a release

cycle thing. It looks like ed25519 support appears in OpenSSL 1.1.1.
