DH and key space question

[Haig C Didizian]

Hello,

I was just wondering if using DH for key negociation (say, to generate a
128 bit blowfish key) reduces the number of potential keys in a way that
significantly affects security. How much less safe is using a DH key as
a blowfish key than using a random string, for example?

Thanks,
Haig Didizian
