named−checkconf − named configuration file syntax checking tool
named−checkconf [−h] [−v] [−j] [−t directory] {filename} [−p] [−z] |
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.
−h
Print 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.
named−checkconf returns an exit status of 1 if errors were detected and 0 otherwise.
