-<a name="id2603169"></a><h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
-<p><span><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span>
- controls the operation of a name
- server. It supersedes the <span><strong class="command">ndc</strong></span> utility
- that was provided in old BIND releases. If
- <span><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span> is invoked with no command line
- options or arguments, it prints a short summary of the
- supported commands and the available options and their
- arguments.
- </p>
-<p><span><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span>
- communicates with the name server
- over a TCP connection, sending commands authenticated with
- digital signatures. In the current versions of
- <span><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span> and <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span>,
- the only supported authentication algorithm is HMAC-MD5,
- which uses a shared secret on each end of the connection.
- This provides TSIG-style authentication for the command
- request and the name server's response. All commands sent
- over the channel must be signed by a key_id known to the
- server.
- </p>
-<p><span><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span>
- reads a configuration file to
- determine how to contact the name server and decide what
- algorithm and key it should use.
- </p>

-<a name="id2603219"></a><h2>OPTIONS</h2>
-<div class="variablelist"><dl>
-<dt><span class="term">-b <em class="replaceable"><code>source-address</code></em></span></dt>
-<dd><p>
- Use <em class="replaceable"><code>source-address</code></em>
- as the source address for the connection to the server.
- Multiple instances are permitted to allow setting of both
- the IPv4 and IPv6 source addresses.
- </p></dd>
-<dt><span class="term">-c <em class="replaceable"><code>config-file</code></em></span></dt>
-<dd><p>
- Use <em class="replaceable"><code>config-file</code></em>
- as the configuration file instead of the default,
- <code class="filename">/etc/rndc.conf</code>.
- </p></dd>
-<dt><span class="term">-k <em class="replaceable"><code>key-file</code></em></span></dt>
-<dd><p>
- Use <em class="replaceable"><code>key-file</code></em>
- as the key file instead of the default,
- <code class="filename">/etc/rndc.key</code>. The key in
- <code class="filename">/etc/rndc.key</code> will be used to
- authenticate
- commands sent to the server if the <em class="replaceable"><code>config-file</code></em>
- does not exist.
- </p></dd>
-<dt><span class="term">-s <em class="replaceable"><code>server</code></em></span></dt>
-<dd><p><em class="replaceable"><code>server</code></em> is
- the name or address of the server which matches a
- server statement in the configuration file for
- <span><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span>. If no server is supplied on the
- command line, the host named by the default-server clause
- in the options statement of the <span><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span>
- configuration file will be used.
- </p></dd>
-<dt><span class="term">-p <em class="replaceable"><code>port</code></em></span></dt>
-<dd><p>
- Send commands to TCP port
- <em class="replaceable"><code>port</code></em>
- instead
- of BIND 9's default control channel port, 953.
- </p></dd>
-<dt><span class="term">-V</span></dt>
-<dd><p>
- Enable verbose logging.
- </p></dd>
-<dt><span class="term">-y <em class="replaceable"><code>key_id</code></em></span></dt>
-<dd><p>
- Use the key <em class="replaceable"><code>key_id</code></em>
- from the configuration file.
- <em class="replaceable"><code>key_id</code></em>
- must be
- known by named with the same algorithm and secret string
- in order for control message validation to succeed.
- If no <em class="replaceable"><code>key_id</code></em>
- is specified, <span><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span> will first look
- for a key clause in the server statement of the server
- being used, or if no server statement is present for that
- host, then the default-key clause of the options statement.
- Note that the configuration file contains shared secrets
- which are used to send authenticated control commands
- to name servers. It should therefore not have general read
- or write access.
- </p></dd>
-</dl></div>
-<p>
- For the complete set of commands supported by <span><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span>,
- see the BIND 9 Administrator Reference Manual or run
- <span><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span> without arguments to see its help
- message.

-<div class="refsect1" lang="en">
-<a name="id2603512"></a><h2>LIMITATIONS</h2>
-<p><span><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span>
- does not yet support all the commands of
- the BIND 8 <span><strong class="command">ndc</strong></span> utility.
- </p>
-<p>
- There is currently no way to provide the shared secret for a
- <code class="option">key_id</code> without using the configuration file.
- </p>
-<p>
- Several error messages could be clearer.
