+ <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
+ <para><command>dnssec-settime</command>
+ reads a DNSSEC private key file and sets the key timing metadata
+ as specified by the <option>-P</option>, <option>-A</option>,
+ <option>-R</option>, <option>-I</option>, and <option>-D</option>
+ options. The metadata can then be used by
+ <command>dnssec-signzone</command> or other signing software to
+ determine when a key is to be published, whether it should be
+ used for signing a zone, etc.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ If none of these options is set on the command line,
+ then <command>dnssec-settime</command> simply prints the key timing
+ metadata already stored in the key.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ When key metadata fields are changed, both files of a key
+ pair (<filename>Knnnn.+aaa+iiiii.key</filename> and
+ <filename>Knnnn.+aaa+iiiii.private</filename>) are regenerated.
+ Metadata fields are stored in the private file. A human-readable
+ description of the metadata is also placed in comments in the key
+ file.

+ <title>TIMING OPTIONS</title>
+ <para>
+ Dates can be expressed in the format YYYYMMDD or YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.
+ If the argument begins with a '+' or '-', it is interpreted as
+ an offset from the present time. For convenience, if such an offset
+ is followed by one of the suffixes 'y', 'mo', 'w', 'd', 'h', or 'mi',
+ then the offset is computed in years (defined as 365 24-hour days,
+ ignoring leap years), months (defined as 30 24-hour days), weeks,
+ days, hours, or minutes, respectively. Without a suffix, the offset
+ is computed in seconds. To unset a date, use 'none'.
+ </para>
+
+ <variablelist>
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>-P <replaceable class="parameter">date/offset</replaceable></term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Sets the date on which a key is to be published to the zone.
+ After that date, the key will be included in the zone but will
+ not be used to sign it.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>-A <replaceable class="parameter">date/offset</replaceable></term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Sets the date on which the key is to be activated. After that
+ date, the key will be included in the zone and used to sign
+ it.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>-R <replaceable class="parameter">date/offset</replaceable></term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Sets the date on which the key is to be revoked. After that
+ date, the key will be flagged as revoked. It will be included
+ in the zone and will be used to sign it.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>-I <replaceable class="parameter">date/offset</replaceable></term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Sets the date on which the key is to be retired. After that
+ date, the key will still be included in the zone, but it
+ will not be used to sign it.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>-D <replaceable class="parameter">date/offset</replaceable></term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Sets the date on which the key is to be deleted. After that
+ date, the key will no longer be included in the zone. (It
+ may remain in the key repository, however.)
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>-S <replaceable class="parameter">predecessor key</replaceable></term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Select a key for which the key being modified will be an
+ explicit successor. The name, algorithm, size, and type of the
+ predecessor key must exactly match those of the key being
+ modified. The activation date of the successor key will be set
+ to the inactivation date of the predecessor. The publication
+ date will be set to the activation date minus the prepublication
+ interval, which defaults to 30 days.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>-i <replaceable class="parameter">interval</replaceable></term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Sets the prepublication interval for a key. If set, then
+ the publication and activation dates must be separated by at least
+ this much time. If the activation date is specified but the
+ publication date isn't, then the publication date will default
+ to this much time before the activation date; conversely, if
+ the publication date is specified but activation date isn't,
+ then activation will be set to this much time after publication.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ If the key is being set to be an explicit successor to another
+ key, then the default prepublication interval is 30 days;
+ otherwise it is zero.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ As with date offsets, if the argument is followed by one of
+ the suffixes 'y', 'mo', 'w', 'd', 'h', or 'mi', then the
+ interval is measured in years, months, weeks, days, hours,
+ or minutes, respectively. Without a suffix, the interval is
+ measured in seconds.

+ <term>-p <replaceable class="parameter">C/P/A/R/I/D/all</replaceable></term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Print a specific metadata value or set of metadata values.
+ The <option>-p</option> option may be followed by one or more
+ of the following letters to indicate which value or values to print:
+ <option>C</option> for the creation date,
+ <option>P</option> for the publication date,
+ <option>A</option> for the activation date,
+ <option>R</option> for the revocation date,
+ <option>I</option> for the inactivation date, or
