PHPDNSAdmin 1.5.2 is dns software developed by bjoern.
DNSAdmin is PHP frontend for creating and editing DNS zone files. It can also handle multiple domains.

All data is stored within a MySQL database, and zonefiles and reversefiles are created automatically.

It also has a little feature to inventory your system by capturing username, MAC address, and the location. This frontend supports A, TXT, HINFO, MX records, and CNAMES

Requirements:

  • Apache Webserver (tested with version 2.0.53)
  • PHP4 (tested with version 4.3.10 (PHP3 is not working !))
  • MySQL (tested with version 4.0.18)


    Installation

    If you already have a PHPDNSAdmin installation, skip all further steps and refer RELNOTES.

    - First build the hole software with its libraries.

    Please refer the HowTo/Manual for each package !

    Few hints:
    - Extract all sources
    - Build Apache with your own options.
    - Build PHP with this options :

    --with-mysql --with-apxs2=< path to apxs2 >
    --with-zlib --with-openssl --with-gdbm --enable-ftp
    --with-gd -with-mhash --enable-shared
    --enable-memory-limit --enable-sysvshm
    --enable-sysvsem --enable-safe-mode

    (You only need the options --with-mysql, --with-apxs2 and to get the program work !
    As of PHP version 4.3.0 and higher, PEAR Support is automaticily compiled in. You don't need to compile PHP with --with-PEAR option any longer. )

    - Install MySql Database

    Please look at the contributed documents from Mysql, how to install the server.

    - Configure your Apache webserver :

    * Add under mod_autoindex section following :
    < IfModule mod_php4.c>
    AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
    AddType application/x-httpd-php .php4
    AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
    < /IfModule>

    To activate the PHP parsing for files ending with .php
    With this activation, PHP should work now. No problem.

    * Create a mysql database called dnsadmin with :

    mysqladmin -u root -p < YOURPASSWORD > create dnsadmin

    * After this, you have to create the tables for the database with this command :

    mysql -u root -p < YOURPASSWORD > dnsadmin < new_dnsadmin.sql

    * If you already have a existing installation, you HAVE TO run the migrate.php script !!

    * Modify the config,inc.php file under dnsadmin/includes :

    Change $user to the username you want to use, with the created password under $pass.
    Most installations uses the root user with no password, so the default values should work.

    The most important thing is to change the path of $cachedir, to where your cachefiles are accepted by the DNS server. (I don`t need to say, you must have setup your DNS server first )

    - After this, everything should work. You only have to create your zone and a "REVERSE" zone (Otherwise, you won`t have reversefiles :-)) and starting adding your ipaddresses.

    Thats it !
    PHPDNSAdmin 1.5.2 supports english interface languages and works with Linux.

    Downloading PHPDNSAdmin 1.5.2 will take if you use fast ADSL connection.
