Zones get a DNSSEC setting: named signs them with BIND's default (or a
custom) dnssec-policy and inline signing, with keys in a per-view key
directory. Jarl shows the keys, the DS record and when it is safe to
publish it, checks the parent's DS records (check-ds, which also tells
named), and refuses steps that would break a signed domain: switching
straight to unsigned, finishing a turn-off too early, deleting or moving
a signed zone, TTLs above max-zone-ttl. Turning off goes through the
insecure policy; wipe starts over once the parent has no DS.
Backups store the DNSSEC keys and restore puts them back for named; the
backup unit gets CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH to read them. Jarl raises a zone's
serial above named's whenever it writes an older one (after a restore).
The serials check compares the signed serial.
With a Porkbun API key in jarl.yaml, the registrar's name servers, glue
records and DS records can be shown and changed, each change checked
first (dry run, force to override).

- jarl zone list showed only primary zones. zone create binds its --type
flag (default "primary") to the same variable as list's --type, so the
default leaked into the list filter and hid hint, secondary and forward
zones. list now has its own variable. TestListQueries runs list
commands against a fake server and checks the filters they send.
- named-checkconf/named-checkzone messages are classified by the tool's
exit code: on success, everything printed is a warning. Warnings such
as 'both "recursion no;" and "allow-recursion" active' were shown as
errors. The CLI, jarld check and the web UI now label them as warnings
and skip the routine "loaded serial" lines.
- The zone_outside_view error points at --adopt-zones.
- docs/views.md: step-by-step split DNS for a server that has no views
yet, tested on a copy of a stock Ubuntu 26.04 setup. Linked from the
README, concepts and validation docs.
