+ <para><command>dnssec-signzone</command>
+ signs a zone. It generates
+ NSEC and RRSIG records and produces a signed version of the
+ zone. The security status of delegations from the signed zone
+ (that is, whether the child zones are secure or not) is
+ determined by the presence or absence of a
+ <filename>keyset</filename> file for each child zone.

+ jitter window that will be used to randomize the signature
+ expire time, thus spreading incremental signature
+ regeneration over time.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Signature lifetime jitter also to some extent benefits
+ validators and servers by spreading out cache expiration,

+ <title>EXAMPLE</title>
+ <para>
+ The following command signs the <userinput>example.com</userinput>
+ zone with the DSA key generated by <command>dnssec-keygen</command>
+ (Kexample.com.+003+17247). Because the <command>-S</command> option
+ is not being used, the zone's keys must be in the master file
+ (<filename>db.example.com</filename>). This invocation looks
+ for <filename>dsset</filename> files, in the current directory,
+ so that DS records can be imported from them (<command>-g</command>).

+ <para>
+ In the above example, <command>dnssec-signzone</command> creates

+ This example re-signs a previously signed zone with default parameters.
+ The private keys are assumed to be in the current directory.
