Looks like a useful workaround.
2. The Well Known Key
The well known key has a owner name of "." and uses HMAC-SHA256
[RFC4635] as its algorithm with a key of 256 zero bits.
-- but later:
A.1. BIND 9
Add the following to named.conf. Some end-of-life versions do not
support HMAC-SHA256.
key "." {
algorithm hmac-sha256;
secret "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA=";
};
-- Does a key of 256 zeros translate to a string of "A" characters? I am
not an expert on HMAC-SHA256.
