oDns - INSTALL
==============


* You will need:
  --------------

- php 4.0.x
  http://www.php.net

- apache 1.3.x
  http://www.apache.org/httpd.html

- mysql
  http://www.mysql.org

- BIND 8.2 or higher

- perl


* Installation  (draft : will be improved...)
  ------------

  1. create a new database (for example "odns"). Import the tables : mysql < mysqldump.txt
  2. setup the configuration files (config.php and config.pl)
  3. login as user "0" (= root : see everything) or another integer (1,2,3,4... = "normal user")
  4. add some hosts. For dns, you have to setup 2 hosts, otherwise the IP will be showed
     instead of ns.xxxxx.com :  "Company DNS1" -> "dns1.company.com" -> "123.23.43.54" )
  5. play with the current demo database...
  6. report problems/ideas/features on the mailing list :)
      (www.sourceforge.net, search "odns", Mailing Lists, Subscribe)

* Features
  --------
  
  - root or an user cannot remove a contact or a host which is currently being used
  - root sees everything, the users see only root's hosts and contacts (= "public" hosts)
