<p><span><strong class="command">dnssec-settime</strong></span>
reads a DNSSEC private key file, sets the key timing metadata
as specified by the <code class="option">-P</code>, <code class="option">-A</code>,
<code class="option">-R</code>, <code class="option">-U</code>, and <code class="option">-D</code>
options.
</p>
<p>
If none of these options is set on the command line,
then <span><strong class="command">dnssec-settime</strong></span> simply prints the key timing
metadata already stored in the key.

If the argument begins with a '+' or '-', it is interpreted as
an offset from the present time. If an offset is followed by
one of the characters 'y', 'm', 'w', 'd', or 'h', then the
offset is computed in years, months, weeks, days, or hours,
respectively; otherwise it is computed in seconds.
