nsd-zonec(8)			   nsd 3.2.5			  nsd-zonec(8)

NAME
       nsd-zonec - NSD zone compiler version 3.2.5.

SYNOPSIS
       nsd-zonec [-v] [-h] [-C] [-L] [-F] [-c configfile] [-d directory] [-o
       origin] [-z zonefile] [-f database]

DESCRIPTION
       Zonec is the nsd(8) database compiler for creating name space databases
       from a set of input master zone files specified in nsd.conf(5) file.

       It is normally invoked via nsdc(8) rebuild command.  Zonec will then
       parse every zone in nsd.conf(5) file and add it to the name space
       database, /var/nsd/db/nsd.db by default, that is used by nsd(8) to
       answer incoming queries.

OPTIONS
       -c configfile
	      Read specified configfile instead of the default /etc/nsd.conf.

       -C     No config file is read (use with -f, -o and -z).

       -d directory
	      Change the working directory to directory before doing any work.
	      Overrides zonesdir: option in config file.

       -f database
	      Create the specified database instead of the file specified as
	      database: in the config file.

       -o origin
	      Use this as the first origin. Zone information is read from
	      zonefile specified with -z. When reading zones from config file
	      this option is ignored.

       -z zonefile
	      Reads all zone information from zonefile. If zonefile equals
	      `-`, then all zone information is read from stdin, making
	      constructs like:
	      # cat zones* | ./nsd-zonec -C -f nsd.db -o example.net -z -
	      possible. When reading zones from config file this option is
	      ignored.

       -v     Increase the verbosity of nsd-zonec. This flag can be specified
	      multiple times to increase the level of verbosity. The first
	      level of verbosity will print per zone summary information. The
	      second level of will print progress information for each 10,000
	      RRs processed.

       -F     Set debug facilities. (If compiled with --enable-checking.)

       -L     Set debug level. (If compiled with --enable-checking.)

FILES
       /var/nsd/db/nsd.db
	      default NSD database

       /etc/nsd/nsd.conf
	      default NSD configuration file

DIAGNOSTICS
       Zonec will log all the problems via the standard error output and
       progress via stdout if the v option is specified.

AUTHORS
       NSD was written by NLnet Labs and RIPE NCC joint team. Please see
       CREDITS file in the distribution for further details.

BUGS
       Zonec has rather weak error diagnostics that will change in further
       versions.  Zonec expects the input files to be free of syntax errors
       and very little fool proof checks are done.
