+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B ldns-keyfetcher

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\fBldns-keyfetcher\fR is used to retrieve the DNSKEYs of a zone.
+
+First it finds all authoritative nameservers of the zone by tracing it from
+the root down. All authoritative nameservers are then queried (using TCP)
+for the DNSKEY RRset of the zone apex. If the results are all the same,
+the key resource record set is printed.
+
+
