NAME

       kzonesign - DNSSEC signing utility

SYNOPSIS

       kzonesign [config_option] [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. An alternative mode is DNSSEC validation of the given zone. The signing or
validation can run in parallel if enabled in the configuration (see policy.signing-threads and
zone.adjust-threads).

Parameters
zone_name
A name of the zone to be signed.

Config options
-c, --config file
Use a textual configuration file (default is /usr/local/etc/knot/knot.conf).

-C, --confdb directory
Use a binary configuration database directory (default is /usr/local/var/lib/knot/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. The option -VV makes the program print the compile time configuration
summary.

EXIT VALUES

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