dnsvi(1)
Edit dynamic DNS zones using vi
SYNOPSIS
dnsvi [-l] [-k keyfile] [@nameserver] zone
DESCRIPTION
dnsvi is a frontend for nsupdate. Given a DNS zone name, it uses
dig -t AXFR to get all the records in a zone. It then spawns your favorite
editor, and upon completion, builds a list of "update add`` and
''update delete" statements to feed to nsupdate.
OPTIONS
- -l
-
Use localhost as nameserver and pass -l (local) to nsupdate.
- -k keyfile
-
Use keyfile for AXFR and nsupdate.
- @nameserver
-
Query nameserver for zone data and send updates there.
ENVIRONMENT
- EDITOR
-
Editor to use instead of sensible-editor.
