I'm working on generating TSIG keys for use with my bind server.

When I generate a 2nd set of keys in a dir, I get a "bad key type" error,

        DIR="/home/me/test/nsupdate"
        HOST="myhost.example.com"

        dnssec-keygen -V
                dnssec-keygen 9.10.3-P4

        cd $DIR
        rm -f *
        ls *
                (emtpy)

        dnssec-keygen -a hmac-sha256 -b 128 -K $DIR -n HOST $HOST
                Kmyhost.example.com.+163+35917
        ls *
                Kmyhost.example.com.+163+35917.key
                Kmyhost.example.com.+163+35917.private

        dnssec-keygen -a hmac-sha256 -b 128 -K $DIR -n HOST $HOST
                dnssec-keygen: warning: dns_dnssec_findmatchingkeys: error

        dnssec-keygen: warning: dns_dnssec_findmatchingkeys: error reading key 
file Kmyhost.example.com.+163+35917.private: bad key type
                Kmyhost.example.com.+163+16588
        ls *
                Kmyhost.example.com.+163+16588.key
                Kmyhost.example.com.+163+16588.private
                Kmyhost.example.com.+163+35917.key
                Kmyhost.example.com.+163+35917.private

>From the manpage

 Note 2: DH, HMAC-MD5, and HMAC-SHA1 through HMAC-SHA512 automatically set the
           -T KEY option.

So it's auto-set here.  What's "bad" about the automatically set key type?
