kzonesign – DNSSEC signing utility

Synopsis

kzonesign [config_option config_argument] [options] zone_name

Description

This utility reads the zone’s zone file, signs the zone according to given configuration, and writes the signed zone file back.

Config options

-c, –config file
Use a textual configuration file (default is @config_dir@/knot.conf).
-C, –confdb directory
Use a binary configuration database directory (default is @storage_dir@/confdb). The default configuration database, if exists, has a preference to the default configuration file.

Options

-o, –outdir dir_name
Write the output zone file to the specified directory instead of the configured one.
-r, –rollover
Allow key roll-overs and NSEC3 re-salt. In order to finish possible KSK submission, set the KSK’s active timestamp to now (+0) using keymgr.
-v, –verify
Instead of (re-)signing the zone, just verify that the zone is correctly signed.
-t, –time timestamp
Sign/verify the zone (and roll the keys if necessary) as if it was at the time specified by timestamp.
-h, –help
Print the program help.
-V, –version
Print the program version.

Parameters

zone_name
A name of the zone to be signed.

Exit values

Exit status of 0 means successful operation. Any other exit status indicates an error.
