what I'm working on a multi-user (meaning support staff) managment system.
 Its a complete management system written in PHP.  If you're looking for
something that you can deploy easily and quickly, you should look at
dbmail administrator.  Its not the greates interface in the world, but it
works.

Currently, I'm only at the point of being able add and edit agents (can't
delete them yet.  I haven't fully fleshed out how to grant access to which
section.  This thing that i'm writing is a complete management system with
a support ticket system, inventory management, web hosting and billing. 
Its interface is going to me more intuitive than  dbmailadministrator. 
The customers will be able to do their own management of domains, domain
name registration, website setup, content management, etc. etc. etc.  I've
seen Cpanel and Zpanel and don't like them.  I have used Rodopi in the
past.  I liked it, but it was too Microsoft centric on the back end.  I
need  a xml interface for domain name registration, so I'm teaching myself
xml at the moment...that is when I have time to write a 100 lines of code
here and there.

I've written it as a collection of functions that make it easier to code,
but its a matter of when I have time.  I'm doing consulting at the moment
and that takes up most of my time.  I can create an account on the system
for you and you can take a look, but you won't find much there.  I haven't
even gotten around to the section of adding or deleting domains.

My system also makes heavy use of powerdns (http://www.powerdns.com) and
mysqlauth for apache.  Its in very early stages and not really ready to
use, yet.  In fact, as it gets more complex, its time to start writing it
as something object oriented.  I also need to change it from being  mysql
centric to dbx or PEAR centric and convert it to something more object
oriented.

What I had written in perl, was to simply rip through a unix password file
and create mailboxes for users.  It imported the user and shadow files
setup the users, mailboxes and aliases for any domain that I fed it.

I had tried to use the command line tools in conjunction with perl, but
bash kept choking on password hashes so I had to write the queries myself.

I will be needing alpha and beta testers in a couple of months.  Thanks
for asking, tough.

Is this more information than you wanted?
