.SH NAME
alternc-slavedns \- synchronise local secondary nameserver list with
remote
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B alternc-slavedns
.RI [ -f ] [ -d ] [ config ... ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
The 
.B alternc-slavedns
program can be used to synchronise a secondary nameserver with a master
nameserver. It fetches the domain list through HTTP(S) and regenerates
the appropriate bind configuration so that nameserver replication works
properly.
.PP
.SH OPTIONS
The commandline parser is crude and minimal. Any unknown option is
treated as a configuration file. If a configuration file is specified,
only this configuration is synchronised, otherwise all configuration are
synchronised.
.TP
.B \-f
Force regeneration of the configuration even if the domain list hasn't
changed.
.TP
.B \-d
Show output of wget and internal debugging output, useful to figure out
what is wrong.
.SH SEE ALSO
.BR wget (1).
.BR named (1).
.PP
The README file has more configuration instructions, that will
eventually be merged here.
