("ISC") dnssec-dsfromkey keyfile dnssec-dsfromkey -s dnsname DESCRIPTION dnssec-dsfromkey outputs the Delegation Signer (DS) resource record (RR), as defined in RFC 3658 and RFC 4509, for the given key(s). OPTIONS -1 Use SHA-1 as the digest algorithm (the default is to use both SHA-1 and SHA-256). -2 Use SHA-256 as the digest algorithm. -a algorithm Select the digest algorithm. The value of must be one of SHA-1 (SHA1) or SHA-256 (SHA256). These values are case insensitive. -v level Sets the debugging level. -s Keyset mode: in place of the keyfile name, the argument is the DNS domain name of a keyset file. Following options make sense only in this mode. -c class Specifies the DNS class (default is IN), useful only in the keyset mode. -d directory Look for keyset files in as the directory, ignored when not in the keyset mode. EXAMPLE To build the SHA-256 DS RR from the Kexample.com.+003+26160 keyfile name, the following command would be issued: dnssec-dsfromkey -2 Kexample.com.+003+26160 The command would print something like: example.com. IN DS 26160 5 2 3A1EADA7A74B8D0BA86726B0C227AA85AB8BBD2B2004F41A868A54F0 C5EA0B94 FILES The keyfile can be designed by the key identification Knnnn.+aaa+iiiii or the full file name Knnnn.+aaa+iiiii.key as generated by dnssec-keygen8. The keyset file name is built from the , the string keyset- and the . CAVEAT A keyfile error can give a "file not found" even if the file exists.
