+<a name="id-1.7"></a><h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
+
+ <p><span class="command"><strong>named-checkconf</strong></span>
+ checks the syntax, but not the semantics, of a
+ <span class="command"><strong>named</strong></span> configuration file. The file is parsed
+ and checked for syntax errors, along with all files included by it.
+ If no file is specified, <code class="filename">/etc/named.conf</code> is read
+ by default.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Note: files that <span class="command"><strong>named</strong></span> reads in separate
+ parser contexts, such as <code class="filename">rndc.key</code> and
+ <code class="filename">bind.keys</code>, are not automatically read
+ by <span class="command"><strong>named-checkconf</strong></span>. Configuration
+ errors in these files may cause <span class="command"><strong>named</strong></span> to
+ fail to run, even if <span class="command"><strong>named-checkconf</strong></span> was
+ successful. <span class="command"><strong>named-checkconf</strong></span> can be run
+ on these files explicitly, however.

+ bug reports &#8212; without compromising private data.
+ This option cannot be used without <code class="option">-p</code>.
