Hi Peter ..

How do you know your DNSSEC is working to begin with?

Here is a URL that I prefer to use that will help answer that question:

https://dnsviz.net/

What you are looking for is your to zone to be “secure”.

Since you are an experienced BIND admin .. any clues to be found in the logs?  
grep for “unsigned”.

One option that appears to be missing from your conf file is:

zone "supercoolzonehere.com" IN {
inline-signing yes;
};

Which would achieve the result that you described below wherein a record is 
added and “rndc reload” is executed.

Good hunting.

John

Subject: Update DNSSEC Zone

HI All,
I really would appreciate a pointer in the right direction. I took over a bind 
server recently. I am not new to bind. I have used it many times and honestly 
prefer it to windows dns but I have never worked with DNSSEC.  I have been 
reading all day and I still can’t figure out how to update the DNSSEC zone. Can 
anyone assist me please? I did see one site that said I could just put in 
regular A record entries and run rndc reload and that would resign the zone. I 
tried that but it didn’t work.

I am using bind-9.14.x and here are the DNSSEC related entries in the zone.

auto-dnssec maintain;
update-policy local;
key-directory “zones/domain-keys”;

Best Regards,
SI
