- _N_a_m_e_d_-_x_f_e_r is an ancillary program executed by _n_a_m_e_d(8) to
- perform an inbound zone transfer. It is rarely executed
- directly, and only by system administrators who are trying
- to debug a zone transfer problem. See RFC's 1033, 1034,
- and 1035 for more information on the Internet name-domain
- system.
-
- Options are:
-
- --zz specifies the name of the zone to be transferred.
-
- --ff specifies the name of the file into which the zone
- should be dumped when it is received from the pri-
- mary server.
-
- --ss specifies the serial number of our current copy of
- this zone. If the SOA RR we get from the primary
- server does not have a serial number higher than
- this, the transfer will be aborted.
-
- --dd Print debugging information. A number after the
- ``d'' determines the level of messages printed.
-
- --ll Specifies a log file for debugging messages. The
- default is system- dependent but is usually in
- _/_v_a_r_/_t_m_p or _/_u_s_r_/_t_m_p. Note that this only applies
- if _-_d is also specified.
-
- --tt Specifies a trace file which will contain a proto-
- col trace of the zone transfer. This is probably
- only of interest to people debugging the name
- server itself.
-
- --pp Use a different port number. The default is the
- standard port number as returned by getservby-
- name(3) for service ``domain''.
-
- --SS Perform a restricted transfer of only the SOA, NS
- records and glue A records for the zone. The SOA
- record will not be loaded by named but will be used
- to determine when to verify the NS records. See
- the ``stubs'' directive in _n_a_m_e_d(8) for more infor-
- mation.

- so-called ``dotted-quad'' syntax only; no host name are
- allowed here. At least one address must be specified.
- Any additional addresses will be tried in order if the
- first one fails to transfer to us successfully.
