[Kea-users] TSIG 'secret' is NOT SECURE

Hi Ralf,
   There is no syntax for the secret file; just create a file containing 
the
TSIG secret and add the "secret-file" parameter to the TSIG definition 
in your
kea-dhcp-ddns config file.

"secret-file": "/usr/local/share/kea/d2-sha1-secret"

There is an example of its use in doc/examples/ddns/all-keys.json

/Peter
