As if DNSSec is not confusing enough...It seems the ARM manual that matches my release is out of step with the web site.  I followed the "Easy-Start Guide for Signing Authoritative Zones" in the ARM manual after manually signing my test zone for my starting point.  The ARM says you ONLY need to specify "dnssec-policy default;" in your zone, view or options clause for the newer way to sign things.  I completed the steps successfully (except for one command that no longer works as shown in the manual which is not important).  I cannot find anything broken with BIND 9.16.23-RH (Extended Support Version) when I follow the ARM manual.

This document https://kb.isc.org/docs/dnssec-key-and-signing-policy <https://kb.isc.org/docs/dnssec-key-and-signing-policy> says I need to have dynamic zone for things to work.  Don't need or design anything other than a good ole static zone since an entry is changed like 3-4 times per year.  The newest ARM has a new section that mentions needing to setup Dynamic DNS but it also states that BIND previously used implicit inline-signing.  It is really difficult for a casual observer to sort this out.  No reference to what they mean by "previously".

It says in the blue box dynamic zones required **or** inline-signing enabled.

Did they break builds newer than 9.16.23 and that is why I am not seeing any issues?  Or is it the fact that I am not an DNSSEC expert I am not seeing a glaring issue?

This has been true since 9.16.33.
