be used in place of "trusted-keys" for zones which
support this protocol. (Note: this syntax is

- add ddns-confgen command to generate
configuration text for named.conf
- add zone option "ddns-autoconf yes;", which
causes named to generate a TSIG session key
and allow updates to the zone using that key
- add '-l' (localhost) option to nsupdate, which
causes nsupdate to connect to a locally-running
named process using the session key generated
by named

"dnssec-lookaside auto;" This is the equivalent
of "dnssec-lookaside . trust-anchor dlv.isc.org;"
plus setting a trusted-key for dlv.isc.org.
Note: The trusted key is hard-coded into named,
but is also stored in (and can be overridden
by) $sysconfdir/bind.keys. As the ISC DLV key
rolls over it can be kept up to date by replacing
the bind.keys file with a key downloaded from

This allows the owner of the containing directory

to be a permanent symbolic link in the path, for
"named -t" support. [RT #18306]
