Before we decide to either standardize on some particular package or roll our own package, please PLEASE PLEASE look at Netinfo.
Netinfo is amazing. I commonly work with a WAN that includes machines [all running Netinfo] in 10 cities with a four level Netinfo hierarchy. I can configure and manage machines in any of the cities, or on a city wide basis, or on a virtual group basis from anywhere (given the appropriate access levels). Configuration includes everything from low-level network attributes to sendmail attributes to virtual domain configurations through to customer information-- whatever you want to hook into Netinfo. b.bum -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
