Re: [SLUG] DNS Appliances/Web Frontends

Infoblox is definitely the bees knees.

I have just deployed a swagger of them to a quite large customer. While they
are based on BIND and Linux, the excellent system and application management
glue that makes them work very well is proprietary. They are definitely a
premium-class product and probably don't fit the original posters price
range, but I definitely recommend look at them for a large-scale enterprise
deployment.

I did a bit of googling and found a bunch of other appliances on the market:

http://www.infoweapons.com/products/solidDNS.php
http://btdiamondip.com/products/DHCP_DNS_Appliances/
http://appliansys.com/products/dnsbox/400/
http://www.bluecatnetworks.com/products/proteusipam
http://www.efficientip.com/en/product-enterprise/appliances/dnsdhcp-solidserver/en-prodenterp-appliance-dnsdhcp.php

When you do your googling you might want to search for "IPAM" as well.

On the free/opensource front, you might want to check out IPplan: 
http://iptrack.sourceforge.net/


I've played around with it in a demo site and it looks alright.

either needs to have the ability to do zone transfers. Any

Please no. not webmin. There are much better front ends for doing dns.
gadmin-bind (the newer ) version is fairly decent -> google is your
friend / apt-cache search dns blah
