DESCRIPTION

13       configuration file.
14

OPTIONS

16       -t directory
17           Chroot to directory so that include directives in the configuration
18           file are processed as if run by a similarly chrooted named.
19
20       -v
21           Print the version of the named-checkconf program and exit.
22
23       -z
24           Perform a test load of all master zones found in named.conf.
25
26       -j
27           When loading a zonefile read the journal if it exists.
28
29       filename
30           The name of the configuration file to be checked. If not specified,
31           it defaults to /etc/named.conf.
32

RETURN VALUES

34       named-checkconf returns an exit status of 1 if errors were detected and
35       0 otherwise.
