@operatorofhell: thanks for the tip. I have seen it before and it looks like a nice tool. I haven't personally used it so I can't say much more than that.
The real factor that I hope can distinguish FOSDDI from other tools is the ability to directly interact with the running instances of DHCP and DNS.
ISC Kea will soon support keeping all the necessary bits of config I need in a database which I can access through SQL calls or an API, while BIND already has an established API that I can use.
The long delay in the initial release is due to me waiting on the features I need to be added into Kea.
has anyone tried these? they're top results on github for "dns dhcp" search
https://github.com/pdav/netmagis
https://github.com/gflix/LdapNetworkAdmin
These projects are nice, but I am going for a different approach.
The tool I am developing will directly interact with the DHCP and DNS services as they are running, modifying the configs on-the-fly.
Thanks for the heads up though!
the last one is not in english but seems to interact with dnsmasq directly
http://www.icir.org/gregor/tools/misc.html and specificaly addrconf? just in case kea isn;t up to the task?
Have you ever heard about NetDOT? It is written in perl and has already functionality for exporting config for BIND and ISC DHCP.
