I haven't been able to gleen much about Webmin yet
as to whether it can support automating common ISP activities distributed among
multiple servers. Does Webmin or any other package provide a means of logging
onto a centralized web site (for ISP employees only) to add radius user
accounts, Postfix virtual accounts, customer FTP/Web accounts/sites, and DNS
records where each function (web, mail, DNS, etc) are split among multiple
machines? As for the DNS, it would have to break this down between adding a
primary zone and records to one DNS server and creating secondary zones to one
or more backup DNS servers.
If no such package exists, I will
likely create one for our internal use with a central SQL database
showing the plain text passwords for each individual account and all the
supporting records. The SQL database will double as billing control and
configuration master. If anyone has suggestions for this project (presuming
there is no package available), I would appreciate any constructive
suggestions on how to implement the design.
