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. </p> </div> <div class="refsection"> <a name="id-1.14.21.8"></a><h2>OPTIONS</h2> <div class="variablelist"><dl class="variablelist"> <dt><span class="term">-h</span></dt> <dd> <p> Print the usage summary and exit. </p> </dd> <dt><span class="term">-j</span></dt> <dd> <p> When loading a zonefile read the journal if it exists. </p> </dd> <dt><span class="term">-p</span></dt> <dd> <p> Print out the <code class="filename">named.conf</code> and included files in canonical form if no errors were detected.
