NAME

       ikidns - ikiwiki-hosting dns helper

SYNOPSIS

       ikidns subcommand options

DESCRIPTION

       Each web server needs to be able to update the DNS when a site is brought up on it. They do so by talking
       to the master DNS server, using nsupdate(1) and a key.

       ikidns  handles  management  of  the  keys,  and configures the master DNS server to accept them for each
       configured toplevel domain name.

FILES

       /etc/bind/$domain/db/zonefile is the zone file for a domain.  A  stub  file  will  be  generated  from  a
       template  if  it  doesn't  exist,  but  probably  needs  to  be configured. As nsupdate(1) is used to add
       subdomains, bind will first add them to a journal file, and later update this file to list them.

       /etc/ikiwiki-hosting/ikiwiki-hosting.conf is the config file read by default.

       /etc/ikiwiki-hosting/templates/ holds templates of bind config and zone files

EXAMPLES

        scp $(ikidns createkey $newserver) $newserver:/etc/ikiwiki-hosting/keys/dns/

        ikidns setupbind
