DNS::nsdiff3pm

The nsdiff, nspatch, and nsvi scripts

Overview

This is a stub module for overview documentation. There are three scripts in the DNS::nsdiff distribution:

nsdiff

The nsdiff program examines the old and new versions of a DNS zone, and outputs the differences as a script for use by BIND's nsupdate program. It provides a bridge between static zone files and dynamic updates.

nspatch

The nspatch script is a wrapper around "nsdiff | nsupdate" that checks and reports errors in a manner suitable for running from cron.

nsvi

The nsvi script makes it easy to edit a dynamic zone.
