NAME

       ldns-read-zone - read a zonefile and print it

SYNOPSIS

       ldns-read-zone ZONEFILE

DESCRIPTION

       ldns-read-zone  reads  a  DNS  zone file and prints it. The output has 1 resource record per line, and no
       pretty-printing makeup.

OPTIONS

       -c     Canonicalize all resource records in the zone before printing

       -d     Only print DNSSEC data from the zone. This option skips every record that is  not  of  type  NSEC,
              NSEC3, RRSIG or DNSKEY. DS records are not printed.

       -b     Include Bubble Babble encoding of DS's.

       -0     Print  a  (null)  for  the  RRSIG  inception,  expiry  and  key data. This option can be used when
              comparing different signing systems that use the  same  DNSKEYs  for  signing  but  would  have  a
              slightly different timings/jitter.

       -h     Show usage and exit

       -n     Do not print the SOA record

       -p     Pad  the  SOA serial number with spaces so the number and the spaces together take ten characters.
              This is useful for in file serial number increments.

       -s     Strip DNSSEC data from the zone. This option skips every record that is of type NSEC, NSEC3, RRSIG
              or DNSKEY. DS records are still printed.

       -S [[+|0]number | YYYYMMDDxx | unixtime ]
              Set  serial  number  to  the given number, or when preceded by a sign, offset the exisiting number
              with it. When giving the literal strings YYYYMMDDxx or unixtime, the serial number is tried to  be
              reset  in  datecounter  or in unixtime format respectively. Though is the updated serial number is
              smaller than the original one, the original one is simply increased by one.

              When updating a serial number, records of type NSEC, NSEC3, RRSIG and DNSKEY will be skipped  when
              printing the zone.

       -u RR type
              Mark RR type for printing in unknown type format.

              -u is not meant to be used together with -U.

       -U RR type
              Mark RR type for not printing in unknown type format.

              The  first  occurrence  of  the  -U  option marks all RR types for printing in unknown type format
              except for the given RR type.  Subsequent -U options will clear the mark for those RR  types  too,
              so  that  only the given RR types will be printed in the presentation format specific for those RR
              types.

              -U is not meant to be used together with -u.

       -v     Show the version and exit

       -z     Sort the zone before printing (this implies -c)
