I have decided to use mysql and php. I have an initial host page design up and running although the code is automatically generated from a form generator at the moment.

I'll help as much as I have time for. I am experienced with php and 
mysql. Learning web dev (I'm really a Solaris sysadmin, though :-).
Being a Solaris admin can help too ;) Hint, Sun's webstack for SAMP.

I'll watch for info on your posting. I've been away from the list for a 
while and I'm just catching up today.

database.


I think I have posted this quite a while ago but it is
still on my mind. We currently configure the hosts, pages etc using a 
windows
database and windows front end that I wrote quite some time ago. I keep 
getting
the urge to convert it to a linux database and a web frontend. However I 
would
not do this if there is no interest in using it.


The
point is that you never touch the bb-hosts file and all configuration of 
hosts
and layouts is done via a user interface.


Is
there any interest in this?

Is
there anyone willing to help?

If
so I was going to convert to mysql and either php or perl cgi. Any 
comments on
this?


We
have 400 odd hosts here and have pages split by priority, service, 
location,
and support group all on the front page but all configured via the 
database.


Currently
the bb-hosts is built via a perl script that extracts the database and 
then
generates a main bb-hosts file plus include files for each sub-page.
