|
|
|
|
<p><span class="command"><strong>rndc-confgen</strong></span>
|
|
generates configuration files
|
|
for <span class="command"><strong>rndc</strong></span>. It can be used as a
|
|
convenient alternative to writing the
|
|
<code class="filename">rndc.conf</code> file
|
|
and the corresponding <span class="command"><strong>controls</strong></span>
|
|
and <span class="command"><strong>key</strong></span>
|
|
statements in <code class="filename">named.conf</code> by hand.
|
|
Alternatively, it can be run with the <span class="command"><strong>-a</strong></span>
|
|
option to set up a <code class="filename">rndc.key</code> file and
|
|
avoid the need for a <code class="filename">rndc.conf</code> file
|
|
and a <span class="command"><strong>controls</strong></span> statement altogether.
|
|
</p>
|
|

</div>
|

<div class="refsection">

<a name="id-1.8"></a><h2>OPTIONS</h2>

|

|
|
<div class="variablelist"><dl class="variablelist">
|
|
<dt><span class="term">-a</span></dt>
|
|
<dd>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Do automatic <span class="command"><strong>rndc</strong></span> configuration.
|
|
This creates a file <code class="filename">rndc.key</code>
|
|
in <code class="filename">/etc</code> (or whatever
|
|
<code class="varname">sysconfdir</code>
|
|
was specified as when <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> was
|
|
built)
|
|
that is read by both <span class="command"><strong>rndc</strong></span>
|
|
and <span class="command"><strong>named</strong></span> on startup. The
|
|
<code class="filename">rndc.key</code> file defines a default
|
|
command channel and authentication key allowing
|
|
<span class="command"><strong>rndc</strong></span> to communicate with
|
|
<span class="command"><strong>named</strong></span> on the local host
|
|
with no further configuration.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Running <span class="command"><strong>rndc-confgen -a</strong></span> allows
|
|
BIND 9 and <span class="command"><strong>rndc</strong></span> to be used as
|
|
drop-in
|
|
replacements for BIND 8 and <span class="command"><strong>ndc</strong></span>,
|
|
with no changes to the existing BIND 8
|
|
<code class="filename">named.conf</code> file.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If a more elaborate configuration than that
|
|
generated by <span class="command"><strong>rndc-confgen -a</strong></span>
|
|
is required, for example if rndc is to be used remotely,
|
|
you should run <span class="command"><strong>rndc-confgen</strong></span> without
|
|
the
|
|
<span class="command"><strong>-a</strong></span> option and set up a
|
|
<code class="filename">rndc.conf</code> and
|
|
<code class="filename">named.conf</code>
|
|
as directed.

<dt><span class="term">-A <em class="replaceable"><code>algorithm</code></em></span></dt>

Specifies the algorithm to use for the TSIG key. Available
|
|
choices are: hmac-md5, hmac-sha1, hmac-sha224, hmac-sha256,
|
|
hmac-sha384 and hmac-sha512. The default is hmac-md5 or

if MD5 was disabled hmac-sha256.

Must be between 1 and 512 bits; the default is the

hash size.

|
|
Specifies a source of random data for generating the
|
|
authorization. If the operating
|
|
system does not provide a <code class="filename">/dev/random</code>
|
|
or equivalent device, the default source of randomness
|
|
is keyboard input. <code class="filename">randomdev</code>
|
|
specifies
|
|
the name of a character device or file containing random
|
|
data to be used instead of the default. The special value
|
|
<code class="filename">keyboard</code> indicates that keyboard
|
|
input should be used.

Specifies the IP address where <span class="command"><strong>named</strong></span>

a directory where <span class="command"><strong>named</strong></span> will run

|
chrooted. An additional copy of the <code class="filename">rndc.key</code>

will be written relative to this directory so that
