ldns-read-zone(1)	    General Commands Manual	     ldns-read-zone(1)

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
       -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.

       -b     Include Bubble Babble encoding of	DS's.

       -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 or RRSIG. DNSKEY	and DS
	      records are not printed.

       -e RR type
	      Do not print RRs of the given rr type.  This option may be given
	      multiple times.  -e is not meant to be used together with	-E.

       -E RR type
	      Print only RRs of	the given rr type.  This option	may  be	 given
	      multiple times.  -E is not meant to be used together with	-e.

       -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 or RRSIG. DNSKEY and 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 existing	number with it.	When giving  the  lit-
	      eral  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 pre-
	      sentation	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)
