Hi Klaus,
Thank you so much for your answer but when Bind deletes a key from a
zone, if I remember correctly, there should not be any rrsig still
active, signed previously by the deleted key. Isn't it?. So I assume in
that case, I should be doing it properly but still see these messages.
Am I wrong Klaus in some statement?. If a ZSK is deleted (I'm not
renewing KSK at the moment) no RRSIG with that key should exist...
Cheers!
