Reading BIND zone files

[zhura]

My zone files, transferred from win2003srv, looks in console vi something like:

^@^@^@^B^@^@^@^AV^R$^S^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@Z^@^A^@^F^@^@^@^@^N^P^@^@^@^A^@^X^A0^C168^C192^Gin-addr^Darpa^@^@,^Ept1c8  galaktika^Elocal^@^@^@^@@B^

-addr^Darpa^@^@^\

Help me please. How can I make it readable?

Hello, received zones in latest dns/bind are now keeped in raw format. You must use named-compilezone utility to convert it.

To convert raw zone file to text file:

named-compilezone -f raw -F text -o example.net.textfile example.net example.net.named.db.file

To convert text file to raw zone file:

named-compilezone -f text -F raw -o example.net.raw example.net example.net.textfile
