+<a name="id2543396"></a><h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
+<p><span><strong class="command">named-checkconf</strong></span>
+ checks the syntax, but not the semantics, of a
+ <span><strong class="command">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><strong class="command">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><strong class="command">named-checkconf</strong></span>. Configuration
+ errors in these files may cause <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> to
+ fail to run, even if <span><strong class="command">named-checkconf</strong></span> was
+ successful. <span><strong class="command">named-checkconf</strong></span> can be run
+ on these files explicitly, however.
