nsd-patch(8)                      nsd 3.2.20                      nsd-patch(8)

NAME
       nsd-patch - NSD zone patcher version 3.2.20.

SYNOPSIS
       nsd-patch [-c configfile] [-f] [-h] [-l] [-o dbfile] [-s] [-x difffile]

DESCRIPTION
       Nsd-patch is the zone patcher for nsd(8). It reads in the nsd database
       (nsd.db) and difffile (ixfr.db), and overwrites the zone text files if
       they have been updated. Running this regularly ensures that the
       difffile does not grow infinitely.

OPTIONS
       -c configfile
              Read specified configfile instead of the default
              /usr/local/etc/nsd/nsd.conf.

       -f     Forces writing zone files. Also zones that have not changed are
              written back to their zone files.

       -h     Print usage help information and exit.

       -l     List the journal entries from the difffile. Does not write to
              zone files.

       -o dbfile
              Store the output directly to dbfile.

       -s     Skip writing zone files. No zones are written back to their zone
              files.

       -x difffile
              Read specified difffile. Overrides the config file setting.

FILES
       /var/db/nsd/nsd.db
              default NSD database

       /usr/local/etc/nsd/nsd.conf
              default NSD configuration file
