How to use the /scripts/adddns script

Introduction

Sometimes you need to add a missing DNS zone file. You can use the adddns script to accomplish this goal. 

Procedure

An example of the adddns script would look like this:

/scripts/adddns --domain domain.tld --ip 0.0.0.0 --owner $user

If the zone already exists in the configuration, but the zone file itself is missing, you may need to add the --overwrite flag listed below.

Control Flags:

--domain (required)
Domain for zone creation

--ip (optional)
IP for zone creation. Defaults to server's main shared IP

--reseller (optional)
Set reseller (zone administrator) to utilize name server IPs assigned via WHM to the reseller.
Defaults to using main server name server IPs

--owner (optional)
Account who will own the domain
Defaults to root

--overwrite (optional)
Allow overwriting of existing zones
