NAME¶
named-checkconf - named configuration file syntax checking toolSYNOPSIS¶
named-checkconf
[ -h] [-v] [-j] [-t directory]
{filename} [ -p] [-z]
DESCRIPTION¶
named-checkconf checks the syntax, but not the semantics, of a named configuration file. The file is parsed and checked for syntax errors, along with all files included by it. If no file is specified, /etc/named.conf is read by default. Note: files that named reads in separate parser contexts, such as rndc.key and bind.keys, are not automatically read by named-checkconf. Configuration errors in these files may cause named to fail to run, even if named-checkconf was successful. named-checkconf can be run on these files explicitly, however.OPTIONS¶
-hPrint the usage summary and exit.
-t directory
Chroot to directory so that include
directives in the configuration file are processed as if run by a similarly
chrooted named.
-v
Print the version of the
named-checkconf program and exit.
-p
Print out the named.conf and included
files in canonical form if no errors were detected.
-z
Perform a test load of all master zones found
in named.conf.
-j
When loading a zonefile read the journal if it
exists.
filename
The name of the configuration file to be
checked. If not specified, it defaults to /etc/named.conf.
RETURN VALUES¶
named-checkconf returns an exit status of 1 if errors were detected and 0 otherwise.SEE ALSO¶
