Hi ppl,
for a customer that wants me to create a password closed VM to deploy at his customer's premise,
I would like to have an external web tool to make changes to network configuration, in particular DNS
is there a tool like that which I can deploy which will allow the customer to change IP / DNS without SSH access to the machine?
obviously if I change the IP I will lose connectivity to it,
but for DNS it should be OK
hit me with the best you've got
External Web Administration tool
Re: External Web Administration tool
Do you mean which DNS servers will be used? Or the contents of DNS? Big difference. For the former I suspect you can just use cockpit, for the latter, I'm not sure there is anything available. And to be honest, if it's just which DNS server is to be used, I'd use ssh and edit /etc/resolv.conf, much easier and more lightweight than any web GUI tool.
Edit: in the grand scheme of things webmin also isn't too bad. Many of the "Control Panels" around, none of which we support, do horrible things like replace distro shipped items and exclude them form updates. Webmin doesn't so if you are comfortable with having several thousand lines of perl code, all running as root on your system! then webmin might be an option.

The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
