| \fIfile\fP - enables serving zone data from an RFC 1035-style master file.

| .SH "DESCRIPTION"
 | |
| .PP
 | |
| The \fIfile\fP plugin is used for an "old-style" DNS server. It serves from a preloaded file that exists
 | |
| on disk. If the zone file contains signatures (i.e., is signed using DNSSEC), correct DNSSEC answers
 | |
| are returned. Only NSEC is supported! If you use this setup \fIyou\fP are responsible for re-signing the
 | |
| zonefile.

| \fB\fCtransfer\fR enables zone transfers. It may be specified multiples times. \fB\fCTo\fR or \fB\fCfrom\fR signals
 | |
| the direction. \fBADDRESS\fP must be denoted in CIDR notation (e.g., 127.0.0.1/32) or just as plain
 | |
| addresses. The special wildcard \fB\fC*\fR means: the entire internet (only valid for 'transfer to').
 | |
| When an address is specified a notify message will be sent whenever the zone is reloaded.
 | |
| .IP \(bu 4
 | |
| \fB\fCreload\fR interval to perform a reload of the zone if the SOA version changes. Default is one minute.
 | |
| Value of \fB\fC0\fR means to not scan for changes and reload. For example, \fB\fC30s\fR checks the zonefile every 30 seconds
 | |
| and reloads the zone when serial changes.

| Or use a single zone file for multiple zones:

| Note that if you have a configuration like the following you may run into a problem of the origin
 | |
| not being correctly recognized:
 | |
| 
 | |
| .PP
 | |
| .RS
 | |
| 
 | |
| .nf
 | |
| \&. {
 | |
|     file db.example.org

| .fi
 | |
| .RE
 | |
| 
 | |
| .PP
 | |
| We omit the origin for the file \fB\fCdb.example.org\fR, so this references the zone in the server block,
 | |
| which, in this case, is the root zone. Any contents of \fB\fCdb.example.org\fR will then read with that
 | |
| origin set; this may or may not do what you want.
 | |
| It's better to be explicit here and specify the correct origin. This can be done in two ways:

 | |
| 
 | |
| .nf
