NAME

       ldap2bind - update bind's DNS zones from LDAP

SYNOPSIS

       ldap2bind

DESCRIPTION

       The  ldap2bind  program  converts DNS zones from LDAP to bind zone configuration files and
       reloads these zones.  It uses ldap2zone(1) to do the conversion.

       The script takes no options, but some  variables  are  defined  and  can  be  modified  in
       /etc/defaults/ldap2zone.

       Usually ldap2bind is called from a cron job that updates the zones regularly from LDAP.

Notes

       The  file  named.conf.ldap2zone must exist in bind's configuration directory and has to be
       included  in  bind's  configuration.  This  is   usually   done   by   including   it   in
       named.conf.local.

EXIT STATUS

       ldap2bind returns 0 on success, 1 on failures.

FILES

       /etc/default/ldap2zone             configuration variables
       /etc/bind/named.conf.ldap2zone     zones extracted from LDAP
