ISPman is an ISP management software written in perl, using an LDAP backend
|
|
to manage virtual hosts for an ISP. It can be used to manage, DNS, virtual
|
|
hosts for apache config, postfix configuration, cyrus mail boxes, proftpd etc.
|
|
|
|
ISPMan was written as a management tool for the network at 4unet where
|
|
between 30 to 50 domains are hosted and the number is crazily growing.
|
|
Managing these domains and their users was a little time consuming, and needed
|
|
an Administrator who knows linux and these daemons fluently. Now the help-desk
|
|
can easily manage the domains and users.
|
|
|
|
LDAP data can be easily replicated site wide, and mail box server can be
|
|
scaled from 1 to n as required. An LDAP entry called maildrop tells the SMTP
|
|
server (postfix) where to deliver the mail. The SMTP servers can be
|
|
loadbalanced with one of many load balancing techniques. The program is
|
|
written with scalibility and High availibility in mind.
|
|
|
|
This may not be the right software for you if you want to run a small ISP on
|
|
a single box or if you want to use this software as an LDAP editor or a DNS
|
|
management software by itself.
