-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-.Ic Dnssigner
-(Sign DNS zone database) is a tool to generate signatures
-for DNS (Domain Name System) resource records. It also generates
-NXT records for each zone.
-.Pp
-.Bl -tag -width Fl
-.It Cm signer-name Ar default_signer
-Specifies a name of the key to use if no signer is defined using the
-.Em Li $SIGNER
-directive in the boot files.
-.It Cm boot-file Ar file
-Specifies the control file for
-.Ic dnssigner ,
-which is in the same format as the BIND-4
-.Pa named.boot
-file.
-.It Cm debug-file Ar file
-Redirect debug output to the specified
-.Ar file ;
-default is
-.Pa signer_out
-in the current directory.
-.It Cm out-dir Ar directory
-Write signed files to thie specified
-.Ar directory ;
-default is to use
-.Pa /tmp .
-.Pp
-.Sy NOTE :
-Specify the full path to this directory; relative paths may not work.
-.It Xo Cm expiration-time
-.Oo Po Cm +
-.Ns \&|
-.Ns Cm =
-.Pc Oc
-.Ns Ar time
-.Xc
-Time when the signature records are to
-expire. Using either
-.Dq Cm =
-or
-.Em no
-sign before the
-.Ar time
-argument
-.Po i.e.,
-.Do Op Cm =
-.Ns Ar time
-.Dc
-.Pc ,
-the
-.Ar time
-is interpreted as an absolute time in seconds when the records will expire.
-.Po Sy NOTE :
- All such times are interpreted as Universal Times.
-.Pc
-With
-.Dq Cm +
-specified
-.Pq i.e., Dq Cm + Ns Ar time ,
-the
-.Ar time
-time is interpreted as an offset into the future.
-.Pp
-If not specified on the command line, the default
-.Cm expiration-time
-is 3600*24*30 sec (30 days).
-.It Cm seq-no Ar number
-Force the serial number in the SOA records to the specified value.
-If this parameter is not set, the serial number will be set to a value
-based on the current time.
-.It Cm hide
-This flag will cause NXT records in zones with wildcard
-records to point to
-.Li *.<zone>
-as the next host. The purpose of this
-flag is to hide all information about valid names in a zone.
-.It Cm noaxfr
-Turn of generation of zone transfer signature records,
-which validate the transfer of an entire zone.
-.It Cm nosign
-When this flag is specified, the boot files are read, NXT
-records are generated and zone file is written to the output
-directory. No SIG records are generated. This flag is useful for
-quickly checking the format of the data in the boot files, and to
-have boot files sorted into DNSSEC order.
-.It Cm verify
-When this flag is present,
-.Ic dnssigner
-will verify all
-signed records and print out a confirmation message for each SIG
-verified. The main use of this flag is to see how long it takes to
-generate each signature.
-.It Cm update-zonekey
-If this flag is specified, then the zonekeys used
-to sign files will be updated with new records. Specify this flag if
-one or more of the keys have been updated. If there are no zonekeys
-specified in the boot files, this flag will insert them. Omitting
-zonekeys will cause primary nameservers to reject the zone.
-.It Fl d Ns Ar level
-Debug level to use for running
-.Ic dnssigner ;
-these levels are the same as those used by
-.Xr @INDOT_U@NAMED @SYS_OPS_EXT_U@
-.El
-.Ss DETAILS
-.Ic Dnssigner
-reads BIND-4
-.Pa named.boot
-and zone files, adds SIG and NXT
-records and writes out the records (to one file per zone, regardless of
-how many include files the original zone was in). The files generated by
-.Ic dnssigner
-are ordinary textual zone files and are then normally
-loaded by
-.Xr @INDOT_U@NAMED @SYS_OPS_EXT_U@
-to serve the zone.
-.Ic Dnssigner
-\fBrequires that the PRIVATE key(s) reside in the input directory\fP.
-.Pp
-Making manual changes to the output files is hazardous, because most
-changes will invalidate one or more signatures contained therein. This
-will cause the zone to fail to load into
-.Xr @INDOT_U@NAMED @SYS_OPS_EXT_U@ ,
-or will cause subsequent
-failures in retrieving records from the zone. It is far better to make
-changes in
-.Ic dnssigner's
-input files, and rerun
-.Ic dnssigner .
-.Pp
-When
-.Ic dnssigner
-detects a delegation point, it creates a special file
-.Pa <zone_name>.PARENT
-which contains the RR's the parent zone signs for the
-child zone (NS, KEY, NXT). The intent is that the child will include this
-file when loading primary nameservers. Similarly, each zone file ends
-with the
-.Dq Li #include <zone_name>.PARENT
-command. The records
-in the
-.Pa .PARENT
-files are omitted from the SIG(AXFR) calculations as these
-records usualy are on a different signing cycle.
-.Pp
-The
-.Em Li Dq $SIGNER Op Ar keyname
-directive can be used to change signers in a
-zone. If
-.Ar keyname
-is omitted, signing is turned off. Keys are loaded the
-first time the keys are accessed. Only records that are signed by the
-zone signer (the key that signs the SOA) are included in the SIG(AXFR)
-calculation. It is not generally recommended that multiple keys sign
-records in the same zone, unless this is useful for dynamic updates.
-.Sh ENVIRONMENT
-No environmental variables are used.
