ods-enforcerd(8)

💖 ods-enforcerd — the OpenDNSSEC enforcer Engine daemon 💖

okay bestie, meet ods-enforcerd — it's a daemon from the OpenDNSSEC manual family (that's manual section 8, the "system admin" girlies) and it is lowkey the backbone of your whole signing setup. let's get into it 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

ods-enforcerd [-c FILE] [-d] [-h] [-i] [-v] [-V]

that's it. six little flags. iconic behavior honestly 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so ods-enforcerd is part of the OpenDNSSEC software, and its whole job — its main character arc, if you will — is keeping your DNS zones continuously signed. like, continuously. not "signed that one time and then we forgot". it stays on it. periodt. ✨

💅 OPTIONS 💅

• -c FILE — read the configuration from FILE instead of using the default one. your config, your rules, your vibe 🎀
• -d — run the daemon in the foreground. no vanishing into the background, she stays right here where you can see her 👀
• -h — show this help. the classic "wait what do I do" button 🫶
• -i — print the configuration and exit. this one's for debugging purposes, so it's giving "show me the receipts then leave" 💅
• -v — increase verbosity. want her to talk more? say less. stack it if you're brave 🗣️
• -V — show the version and exit. quick flex, then bye ✌️

ngl bestie, -v just increases verbosity — it does not, like, multiply or anything weird. keep your expectations correct 💀

🩺 DIAGNOSTICS 🩺

it will log all the problems via standard syslog(8). every single one. so if something's wrong, syslog knows, and syslog will tell you 💖
