da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw checks the syntax and integrity of a zone file. It performs the
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw same checks as <span class="command"><strong>named</strong></span> does when loading a
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw zone. This makes <span class="command"><strong>named-checkzone</strong></span> useful for
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw checking zone files before configuring them into a name server.
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw <span class="command"><strong>named-compilezone</strong></span> is similar to
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw <span class="command"><strong>named-checkzone</strong></span>, but it always dumps the
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw zone contents to a specified file in a specified format.
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw Additionally, it applies stricter check levels by default,
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw since the dump output will be used as an actual zone file
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw loaded by <span class="command"><strong>named</strong></span>.
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw When manually specified otherwise, the check levels must at
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw least be as strict as those specified in the
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw <span class="command"><strong>named</strong></span> configuration file.

da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw When loading a zone file, read the journal if it exists.
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw The journal file name is assumed to be the zone file name

da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw This is mandatory for <span class="command"><strong>named-compilezone</strong></span>.

da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw On the other hand, the relative format is more
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw human-readable and is thus suitable for editing by hand.
