Provisioning with phpDHCPAdmin

I just recently ran across this project beta. Looks very interesting if stable. Anyone have any experience with it?

Cool!

Cool app - I am trying it out right now, seems to me as very nice and usable. What I recommend is following secure configuration example plus strengthening security via additional server and firewall directives http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/phpdhcpadmin/index.php?title=Main_...

I will let you know how it works but it is already my application of choice - I was just about to start writing my own scripts with OMAPI :) soooo, this looks much better and developed further than I would ever go :)

The developer seems to be very accessible and accommodating as well. Not being extremely well-versed with Linux, I ran into a few minor issues with
the install and configuration that required some help. I emailed the developer a couple of times and received prompt responses which helped get me up
and running. I'm still working on a few Linux related issues, but the app seems quite intuitive and flexible without being klunky and cumbersome.

Now if we could only talk the guy into writing a similar front end for managing docsis-server!

Cheers,

The disadvantage to using

The disadvantage to using phpDHCPAdmin is that it handles updates by scheduling a restart of the server, which could be bad, i.e. bad config means your server is down until you fix it.

On the other hand OMAPI updates the server live, and though it certainly has less features, for the stuff it can do, i.e. add/remove hosts it is much more Ideal.

just my $.02 your mileage may vary.
