DaemonConfigurationFilesGeneration

When you make changes in the DTC control panel you can use these features to force an immediate update of the configuration files or you can wait for the cron job to make the changes automatically.

NAMED ZONES FILES - rewrites the files in /var/lib/dtc/etc/zones

DTC doesn't clean up zone files for domains that you have deleted. The files are not bothering the system so can be left in place.

The zone files are referenced from /var/lib/dtc/etc/name.conf which is referenced from /etc/bind/name.conf

Your dns server settings are taken from the "DTC general configuration"/"Named zonefiles" section of the DTC panel.

REINIT NAMED ZONES - sets the "please generate me" flag for each domain. You can then wait for the cron job to update the files or execute the cron job yourself by going to:

cd /usr/share/dtc/admin
php cron.php

This will cause the cron.php script to be run. It will still check the database to see if cron is already running. You can check the "Deamons states" screen to see if the cron job is running and when the next one is due (see: "Next cronjob").
