I'm doing the same with my CF2 setup and found that duplicating
information is bad ;-)

Some time I need to update a public IP address (new ISP), I need to
update my bind zone file, the nagios host configuration, the cacti one,
the rancid one.

I run 'rgrep -l' to list files, then sed on them to make the change, the
entry level for other admins is quite high, maybe nova simplify this,
but I'm using the community, using Emacs as my configuration
interface (;-)) and bzr to track changes.

My DNS/Nagios/what ever service would rebuild its configuration only if
the files under the host/ directrory are changed, so it should not happen
at every run.

Hope I can make my use case acceptable, I could put everything in LDAP
or any database, but I like text files, diff and distributed version
control systems ;-)

Regards.
