I would like to create a web app / interface to manipulate and maintain my server's dhcpd.conf file. *Background in Short:* I was asked a few years back to build a wifi network for approximately 500 users with unlimited devices. With no money (barely any money). Done. The only requirement/restriction is we use MAC address filtering. So I have a server, serving dhcp leases. I have to manually input each MAC address with a hostname and group. This is a terrible pain. Especially for the amount of users I have with unlimited devices. Christmas time is horrible because they all come in wanting new devices registered. I do have, at least, a web form through google which updates an excel sheet in google docs, which I then access, copy the MAC address, then using my server gui, add the new MAC to the dhcpd.conf file and restart the server. *What I've done & What my hope is:* I have started the Django tutorial. I have dabbled with python. I am an enthusiast in training. I have very little to no experience. I can learn. Fast. I am just running into branches of "things to learn" and it's starting to be a little overwhelming. I hope to do the lion's share of creating a web app that will do the following:
1. Register a user using sqlite3 database I have already created for all users. 2. Authenticate a user 3. Provide a display of registered devices for user to either delete or not delete 4. Provide a form to register a new device(s) 5. submit request, append to dhcpd.conf & restart dhcp server There is minutia I am not including in this *cry for help*. This app would help me gain some distance from this monumental task. Am I in the right place? Is there some special soul out there who wants to help a fella out?
