NAME

krfcheck - Check a DNSSEC-Tools keyrec file for problems and inconsistencies

SYNOPSIS

  krfcheck [-zone | -set | -key] [-count] [-quiet]
           [-verbose] [-Version] [-help] keyrec-file

DESCRIPTION

This script checks a keyrec file for problems, potential problems, and inconsistencies.

Recognized problems include:

•

no zones defined

The keyrec file does not contain any zone keyrecs.

•

no sets defined

The keyrec file does not contain any set keyrecs.

•

no keys defined

The keyrec file does not contain any key keyrecs.

•

unknown zone keyrecs

A set keyrec or a key keyrec references a non-existent zone keyrec.

•

missing key from zone keyrec

A zone keyrec does not have both a KSK key and a ZSK key.

•

missing key from set keyrec

A key listed in a set keyrec does not have a key keyrec.

•

expired zone keyrecs

A zone has expired.

•

mislabeled key

A key is labeled as a KSK (or ZSK) and its owner zone has it labeled as the opposite.

•

invalid zone data values

A zone's keyrec data are checked to ensure that they are valid. The following conditions are checked: existence of the zone file, existence of the KSK file, existence of the KSK and ZSK directories, the end-time is greater than one day, and the seconds-count and date string match.

•

invalid key data values

A key's keyrec data are checked to ensure that they are valid. The following conditions are checked: valid encryption algorithm, key length falls within algorithm's size range, random generator file exists, and the seconds-count and date string match.

Recognized potential problems include:

•

imminent zone expiration

A zone will expire within one week.

•

odd zone-signing date

A zone's recorded signing date is later than the current system clock.

•

orphaned keys

A key keyrec is unreferenced by any set keyrec.

•

missing key directories

A zone keyrec's key directories (kskdirectory or zskdirectory) does not exist.

Recognized inconsistencies include:

•

key-specific fields in a zone keyrec

A zone keyrec contains key-specific entries. To allow for site-specific extensibility, krfcheck does not check for undefined keyrec fields.

•

zone-specific fields in a key keyrec

A key keyrec contains zone-specific entries. To allow for site-specific extensibility, krfcheck does not check for undefined keyrec fields.

•

mismatched zone timestamp

A zone's seconds-count timestamp does not match its textual timestamp.

•

mismatched set timestamp

A set's seconds-count timestamp does not match its textual timestamp.

•

mismatched key timestamp

A key's seconds-count timestamp does not match its textual timestamp.

OPTIONS

-zone

Only perform checks of zone keyrecs. This option may not be combined with the -set or -key options.

-set

Only perform checks of set keyrecs. This option may not be combined with the -zone or -key options.

-key

Only perform checks of key keyrecs. This option may not be combined with the -set or -zone options.

-count

Display a final count of errors.

-quiet

Do not display messages. This option supersedes the setting of the -verbose option.

-verbose

Display many messages. This option is subordinate to the -quiet option.
