\fBnsupdate\fR [\fB\-d\fR] [[\fB\-y\ \fR\fB\fI[hmac:]\fR\fIkeyname:secret\fR\fR] | [\fB\-k\ \fR\fB\fIkeyfile\fR\fR]] [\fB\-t\ \fR\fB\fItimeout\fR\fR] [\fB\-u\ \fR\fB\fIudptimeout\fR\fR] [\fB\-r\ \fR\fB\fIudpretries\fR\fR] [\fB\-R\ \fR\fB\fIrandomdev\fR\fR] [\fB\-v\fR] [filename]
|
||||
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
\fBnsupdate\fR
|
||||
is used to submit Dynamic DNS Update requests as defined in RFC2136 to a name server\&. This allows resource records to be added or removed from a zone without manually editing the zone file\&. A single update request can contain requests to add or remove more than one resource record\&.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
Zones that are under dynamic control via
|
||||
\fBnsupdate\fR
|
||||
or a DHCP server should not be edited by hand\&. Manual edits could conflict with dynamic updates and cause data to be lost\&.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The resource records that are dynamically added or removed with
|
||||
\fBnsupdate\fR
|
||||
have to be in the same zone\&. Requests are sent to the zone\'s master server\&. This is identified by the MNAME field of the zone\'s SOA record\&.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The
|
||||
\fB\-d\fR
|
||||
option makes
|
||||
\fBnsupdate\fR
|
||||
operate in debug mode\&. This provides tracing information about the update requests that are made and the replies received from the name server\&.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
Transaction signatures can be used to authenticate the Dynamic DNS updates\&. These use the TSIG resource record type described in RFC2845 or the SIG(0) record described in RFC3535 and RFC2931\&. TSIG relies on a shared secret that should only be known to
|
||||
\fBnsupdate\fR
|
||||
and the name server\&. Currently, the only supported encryption algorithm for TSIG is HMAC\-MD5, which is defined in RFC 2104\&. Once other algorithms are defined for TSIG, applications will need to ensure they select the appropriate algorithm as well as the key when authenticating each other\&. For instance, suitable
|
||||
\fBkey\fR
|
||||
and
|
||||
\fBserver\fR
|
||||
statements would be added to
|
||||
\FC/etc/named\&.conf\F[]
|
||||
so that the name server can associate the appropriate secret key and algorithm with the IP address of the client application that will be using TSIG authentication\&. SIG(0) uses public key cryptography\&. To use a SIG(0) key, the public key must be stored in a KEY record in a zone served by the name server\&.
|
||||
\fBnsupdate\fR
|
||||
does not read
|
||||
\FC/etc/named\&.conf\F[]\&.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
\fBnsupdate\fR
|
||||
uses the
|
||||
\fB\-y\fR
|
||||
or
|
||||
\fB\-k\fR
|
||||
option to provide the shared secret needed to generate a TSIG record for authenticating Dynamic DNS update requests, default type HMAC\-MD5\&. These options are mutually exclusive\&. With the
|
||||
\fB\-k\fR
|
||||
option,
|
||||
\fBnsupdate\fR
|
||||
reads the shared secret from the file
|
||||
\fIkeyfile\fR, whose name is of the form
|
||||
\FCK{name}\&.+157\&.+{random}\&.private\F[]\&. For historical reasons, the file
|
||||
\FCK{name}\&.+157\&.+{random}\&.key\F[]
|
||||
must also be present\&. When the
|
||||
\fB\-y\fR
|
||||
option is used, a signature is generated from
|
||||
[\fIhmac:\fR]\fIkeyname:secret\&.\fR
|
||||
\fIkeyname\fR
|
||||
is the name of the key, and
|
||||
\fIsecret\fR
|
||||
is the base64 encoded shared secret\&. Use of the
|
||||
\fB\-y\fR
|
||||
option is discouraged because the shared secret is supplied as a command line argument in clear text\&. This may be visible in the output from
|
||||
\fBps\fR(1)
|
||||
or in a history file maintained by the user\'s shell\&.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The
|
||||
\fB\-k\fR
|
||||
may also be used to specify a SIG(0) key used to authenticate Dynamic DNS update requests\&. In this case, the key specified is not an HMAC\-MD5 key\&.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
By default
|
||||
\fBnsupdate\fR
|
||||
uses UDP to send update requests to the name server unless they are too large to fit in a UDP request in which case TCP will be used\&. The
|
||||
\fB\-v\fR
|
||||
option makes
|
||||
\fBnsupdate\fR
|
||||
use a TCP connection\&. This may be preferable when a batch of update requests is made\&.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The
|
||||
\fB\-t\fR
|
||||
option sets the maximum time an update request can take before it is aborted\&. The default is 300 seconds\&. Zero can be used to disable the timeout\&.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The
|
||||
\fB\-u\fR
|
||||
option sets the UDP retry interval\&. The default is 3 seconds\&. If zero, the interval will be computed from the timeout interval and number of UDP retries\&.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The
|
||||
\fB\-r\fR
|
||||
option sets the number of UDP retries\&. The default is 3\&. If zero, only one update request will be made\&.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The
|
||||
\fB\-R \fR\fB\fIrandomdev\fR\fR
|
||||
option specifies a source of randomness\&. If the operating system does not provide a
|
||||
\FC/dev/random\F[]
|
||||
or equivalent device, the default source of randomness is keyboard input\&.
|
||||
\FCrandomdev\F[]
|
||||
specifies the name of a character device or file containing random data to be used instead of the default\&. The special value
|
||||
\FCkeyboard\F[]
|
||||
indicates that keyboard input should be used\&. This option may be specified multiple times\&.
|
||||
.SH "INPUT FORMAT"
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
\fBnsupdate\fR
|
||||
reads input from
|
||||
\fIfilename\fR
|
||||
or standard input\&. Each command is supplied on exactly one line of input\&. Some commands are for administrative purposes\&. The others are either update instructions or prerequisite checks on the contents of the zone\&. These checks set conditions that some name or set of resource records (RRset) either exists or is absent from the zone\&. These conditions must be met if the entire update request is to succeed\&. Updates will be rejected if the tests for the prerequisite conditions fail\&.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
Every update request consists of zero or more prerequisites and zero or more updates\&. This allows a suitably authenticated update request to proceed if some specified resource records are present or missing from the zone\&. A blank input line (or the
|
||||
\fBsend\fR
|
||||
command) causes the accumulated commands to be sent as one Dynamic DNS update request to the name server\&.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The command formats and their meaning are as follows:
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
\fBserver\fR {servername} [port]
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
\fIservername\fR\&. When no server statement is provided,
|
||||
\fBnsupdate\fR
|
||||
will send updates to the master server of the correct zone\&. The MNAME field of that zone\'s SOA record will identify the master server for that zone\&.
|
||||
\fIport\fR
|
||||
is the port number on
|
||||
\fIservername\fR

||||
where the dynamic update requests get sent\&. If no port number is specified, the default DNS port number of 53 is used\&.

The prerequisite condition gets the name server to check that there are no resource records of any type for
|
||||
\fBnickname\&.example\&.com\fR\&. If there are, the update request fails\&. If this name does not exist, a CNAME for it is added\&. This ensures that when the CNAME is added, it cannot conflict with the long\-standing rule in RFC1034 that a name must not exist as any other record type if it exists as a CNAME\&. (The rule has been updated for DNSSEC in RFC2535 to allow CNAMEs to have RRSIG, DNSKEY and NSEC records\&.)

The TSIG key is redundantly stored in two separate files\&. This is a consequence of nsupdate using the DST library for its cryptographic operations, and may change in future releases\&.
