da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin reads a public DNSKEY record and generates a pair of
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin .key/.private files. The DNSKEY record may be read from an
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin existing .key file, in which case a corresponding .private file
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin will be generated, or it may be read from any other file or
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin from the standard input, in which case both .key and .private
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin files will be generated.
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin The newly-created .private file does <span class="emphasis"><em>not</em></span>
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin contain private key data, and cannot be used for signing.
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin However, having a .private file makes it possible to set
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin publication (<code class="option">-P</code>) and deletion
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin (<code class="option">-D</code>) times for the key, which means the
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin public key can be added to and removed from the DNSKEY RRset
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin on schedule even if the true private key is stored offline.

da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin Zone file mode: instead of a public keyfile name, the argument
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin is the DNS domain name of a zone master file, which can be read
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin from <code class="option">file</code>. If the domain name is the same as
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin <code class="option">file</code>, then it may be omitted.
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin If <code class="option">file</code> is set to <code class="literal">"-"</code>, then
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin the zone data is read from the standard input.

da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin Sets the directory in which the key files are to reside.

da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin Sets the default TTL to use for this key when it is converted
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin into a DNSKEY RR. If the key is imported into a zone,
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin this is the TTL that will be used for it, unless there was
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin already a DNSKEY RRset in place, in which case the existing TTL
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin would take precedence. Setting the default TTL to
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin <code class="literal">0</code> or <code class="literal">none</code> removes it.

da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin Prints version information.
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin Dates can be expressed in the format YYYYMMDD or YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin If the argument begins with a '+' or '-', it is interpreted as
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin an offset from the present time. For convenience, if such an offset
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin is followed by one of the suffixes 'y', 'mo', 'w', 'd', 'h', or 'mi',
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin then the offset is computed in years (defined as 365 24-hour days,
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin ignoring leap years), months (defined as 30 24-hour days), weeks,
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin days, hours, or minutes, respectively. Without a suffix, the offset
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin is computed in seconds. To explicitly prevent a date from being
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin set, use 'none' or 'never'.
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin<dt><span class="term">-P <em class="replaceable"><code>date/offset</code></em></span></dt>
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin Sets the date on which a key is to be published to the zone.
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin After that date, the key will be included in the zone but will
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin not be used to sign it.
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin<dt><span class="term">-D <em class="replaceable"><code>date/offset</code></em></span></dt>
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin Sets the date on which the key is to be deleted. After that
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin date, the key will no longer be included in the zone. (It
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin may remain in the key repository, however.)
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin A keyfile can be designed by the key identification
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin <code class="filename">Knnnn.+aaa+iiiii</code> or the full file name
da2e3ebdc1edfbc5028edf1354e7dd2fa69a7968chin <code class="filename">Knnnn.+aaa+iiiii.key</code> as generated by
