List,

Inspired by...

https://lists.isc.org/pipermail/bind-users/2010-September/081076.html

I tried some dates in the future with DNSSEC and I was able to sign a
zone (forfunsec.org) with an expiration time of 20771231000000. Dates
after that are not possible, which seems consistent with RFC1982.

For what is is worth; DNScheck seems unable to handle this date. It
generates an error: 'DNSSEC signature expired'.

I haven't tried to lower the date up to a value that DNScheck accepts,
but I suspect that it will be somewhere around the year 2038?

Reagards,
