.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.LP
.B Zonec
is the nsd(8) database compiler for creating name space databases
from a set of input master zone files specified in nsd.conf(5) file.
.LP
It is normally invoked via nsdc(8) rebuild command.
.B Zonec
will then parse every zone in nsd.conf(5) file and add it to the
name space database,
.I @dbfile@
by default, that is used by nsd(8) to answer incoming queries.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.TP
.B \-c\fI configfile
Read specified configfile instead of the default
.IR @nsdconfigfile@ .
.TP
.B \-C
No config file is read (use with \-f, \-o and \-z).
.TP
.B \-d\fI directory
Change the working directory to
.I directory
before doing any work. Overrides zonesdir: option in config file.
.TP
.B \-f\fI database
Create the specified
.I database
instead of the file specified as database: in the config file.
.TP
.B \-o\fI origin
Use this as the first origin. Zone information is read from
zonefile specified with \-z. When reading zones from config file
this option is ignored.
.TP
.B \-z\fI zonefile
Reads all zone information from
.IR zonefile .
If
.IR zonefile
equals `\-`, then all zone information is read from stdin, making
constructs like:
.LP
.RS
.B # cat zones*
|
.B ./nsd\-zonec \-C \-f nsd.db \-o example.net \-z \-
.RE
.LP
.RS
possible. When reading zones from config file this option is
ignored.
.RE
.TP
.B \-v
Increase the verbosity of nsd\-zonec. This flag can be specified multiple
times to increase the level of verbosity. The first level of
verbosity will print per zone summary information. The second level
of will print progress information for each 10,000 RRs processed.
.TP
.B \-F
Set debug facilities. (If compiled with \-\-enable\-checking.)
.TP
.B \-L
Set debug level. (If compiled with \-\-enable\-checking.)

will log all the problems via the standard error output and
progress via stdout if the

was written by NLnet Labs and RIPE NCC joint team. Please see
CREDITS file in the distribution for further details.
.SH "BUGS"
.LP
.B Zonec
has rather weak error diagnostics that will change in further
versions.
.B Zonec
expects the input files to be free of syntax errors and very little
fool proof checks are done.
