<a name="id2543433"></a><h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
<p><span><strong class="command">rndc-confgen</strong></span>
generates configuration files
for <span><strong class="command">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><strong class="command">controls</strong></span>
and <span><strong class="command">key</strong></span>
statements in <code class="filename">named.conf</code> by hand.
Alternatively, it can be run with the <span><strong class="command">-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><strong class="command">controls</strong></span> statement altogether.
</p>
</div>
<div class="refsect1" lang="en">
<a name="id2543478"></a><h2>OPTIONS</h2>
<div class="variablelist"><dl>
<dt><span class="term">-a</span></dt>
<dd>
<p>
Do automatic <span><strong class="command">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><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span>
and <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> on startup. The
<code class="filename">rndc.key</code> file defines a default
command channel and authentication key allowing
<span><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span> to communicate with
<span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> on the local host
with no further configuration.
</p>
<p>
Running <span><strong class="command">rndc-confgen -a</strong></span> allows
BIND 9 and <span><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span> to be used as
drop-in
replacements for BIND 8 and <span><strong class="command">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><strong class="command">rndc-confgen -a</strong></span>
is required, for example if rndc is to be used remotely,
you should run <span><strong class="command">rndc-confgen</strong></span> without
the
<span><strong class="command">-a</strong></span> option and set up a
<code class="filename">rndc.conf</code> and
<code class="filename">named.conf</code>
as directed.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span class="term">-b <em class="replaceable"><code>keysize</code></em></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Specifies the size of the authentication key in bits.
Must be between 1 and 512 bits; the default is 128.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term">-c <em class="replaceable"><code>keyfile</code></em></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Used with the <span><strong class="command">-a</strong></span> option to specify
an alternate location for <code class="filename">rndc.key</code>.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term">-h</span></dt>
<dd><p>
Prints a short summary of the options and arguments to
<span><strong class="command">rndc-confgen</strong></span>.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term">-k <em class="replaceable"><code>keyname</code></em></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Specifies the key name of the rndc authentication key.
This must be a valid domain name.
The default is <code class="constant">rndc-key</code>.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term">-p <em class="replaceable"><code>port</code></em></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Specifies the command channel port where <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span>
listens for connections from <span><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span>.
The default is 953.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term">-r <em class="replaceable"><code>randomfile</code></em></span></dt>
<dd><p>
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.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term">-s <em class="replaceable"><code>address</code></em></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Specifies the IP address where <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span>
listens for command channel connections from
<span><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span>. The default is the loopback
address 127.0.0.1.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term">-t <em class="replaceable"><code>chrootdir</code></em></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Used with the <span><strong class="command">-a</strong></span> option to specify
a directory where <span><strong class="command">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
it will be found by the chrooted <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span>.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term">-u <em class="replaceable"><code>user</code></em></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Used with the <span><strong class="command">-a</strong></span> option to set the
owner
of the <code class="filename">rndc.key</code> file generated.
If
<span><strong class="command">-t</strong></span> is also specified only the file
in
the chroot area has its owner changed.
