NAME
mydnscheck - Check zone data for consistency and syntax.

DESCRIPTION
mydnscheck scans the zones named on the command line for syntax. If no zones are specified, all zones are scanned. If the -c (or -C) option is specified, additional database consistency checks are performed. The program writes all results to stdout in a format that both humans and computers should be able to read. Each problem found is listed on a separate line, with a TAB character in between each field. The fields listed are: MESSAGE .. SOA ID .. RR ID .. NAME .. TTL .. TYPE .. DATA If stderr is a terminal, a progress meter is displayed if scanning all zones.
