1. since I use HSM(now is softhsm) to store the DNSSEC key, does it more insecure to convert the key(s) from HSM to .private file with dnssec-keyfromlabel ?
keys are not actually 'converted' with this utility; instead the .private file links to the corresponding private (and typically unexportable) key on the HSM. (If you look inside the .private key you'll see a "Label:" which contains the base64-encoded "pointer" to the key on the HSM. In other words, use of dnssec-keyfromlabel(1) is not a security issue per se. -JP -- Visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions.
