SYNOPSIS

ods-enforcerd [-c FILE] [-d] [-1] [-p POLICY] [-P PIDFILE] [-v] [-h]

DESCRIPTION

ods-enforcerd is part of the OpenDNSSEC software. It will enforce any policies that you have set up for zones under the control of OpenDNSSEC (including the generation of keys if configured to). For more information, go to http://www.opendnssec.org and visit the Documentation page.

Invoked with no arguments, ods-enforcerd will read the default configuration file /etc/opendnssec/conf.xml and act according to its contents.

SIGNALS

The ods-enforcerd can be controlled using the ods-control utility. Signals may also be used.
SIGHUP
