I'm sure there are more that I'm forgetting.

To expand on this - the catalog zones in bind 9.11 should permit in-band 
provisioning of new DNS zones. Once the initial server is setup, all 
config and data changes can be done via DDNS from that point forward, AIUI

Re: BIND 9 API & GUI

2016-07-25 Thread David Ford 
i have a project i'm in the middle of developing a project that uses
postgresql as the dlz backend and has a web interface. it works for most
day-to-day operations for zone edits (GUI zone add/remove not yet in
place) and it is multi-user concurrent and uses a small middleware to
replicate to multiple masters. the backend is a WAMP infrastructure and
the system is agnostic regarding clients. i don't have a command line
interface but doing so would be pretty easy.

most of it is on github at https://github.com/Blue-Labs/ButterflyDNS.

See the nsupdate(1) manual; also RFC 2136 and the BIND 9 ARM chapter 
4.

Features which would work well behind a GUI frontend exist, and more 
are coming in BIND 9.11.  See the rndc(8) manual and the various 
commands it has.

The rndc *zone commands (addzone, delzone, modzone) will improve the 
experience of running a master/slave group of nameservers, as will 
the "catalog zones" feature which is in planning stages.

Dynamic update of zone data was solved with RFC2136,  April 1997 
(over 19 years ago!) 

Various commercial DNS appliance vendors have implemented GUI 
frontends, but those are now within reach of mere mortals.
