Re: [swinog] DNS virtual Appliance
Stan! *slap* :) 1) Apprentices are there to learn something, if they don't show a total desinterest they will find it cool to learn VI and BIND (or $whatever-other-dns-server). 2) It's your responsibility to turn them into good UNIX engineers! Or at least learn them something useful. Useful in terms of "they understand how DNS work" and not in terms of "they can administrate something with a GUI and as long as the GUI works everything is fine". 3) I'm not a feminist, but how does it matter here if it's a girl or not? Even if I share the oppinion of girls using VI being sexy ;) Cheers, Mario - Original Message > From: Marc Balmer > > Anybody knows a good and reliable DNS server that is suitable to run > > on VMware and has a simple gui for management? > > Any of the BSDs will do (FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD) and the simple gui > is vi. > > It rocks, we use it. Marc, if you compare the cost of having a UNIX+vi engineer on salary and an apprentice who can do the DNS job easily through a GUI, vi does not rock any more :) Another factor is, that that apprentice might be a girl :) ___ swinog mailing list swinog@lists.swinog.ch http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature ___ swinog mailing list swinog@lists.swinog.ch http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog
Re: [swinog] DNS virtual Appliance
Hi, Linux/BSD and Webmin will do the job. I've got also a 30 page step for step manual somewhere for it. And no, webmin was terrible years ago, but got really mature, at least the bind part. -- Martin > > > Reza Kordi schrieb: >> Hi Guys >> >> Anybody knows a good and reliable DNS server that is suitable to run >> on VMware and has a simple gui for management? >> > ___ swinog mailing list swinog@lists.swinog.ch http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog

Just google around for some solutions. There are plenty of solutions: e.g. powerdns with gui, webmin has some (ugly) gui, some rootshells (evil) bring DNS guis, ...
