I'm looking for a database to drive creation of the BIND config and zone files. I've been doing it for years myself, but have turned it over to Customer Service, who cannot seem to get the concept of maintaining forward and reverse mapping. I run BIND 8 on Solaris, so something that runs under Solaris (not MickeySoft) is preferable. Both web and local shell database modification is definitely a plus. I'd rather not reinvent the wheel by programming this myself.
The tinydns authoritative dns server from Bernstein's djbdns package allows you to create A and PTR records with a single entry in the data file, like so: =host.domain.com:1.2.3.4 See http://cr.yp.to/djbdns.html. See also http://www.djbdns.org for some LDAP and SQL backends for djbdns.
