Project Description

The Machine Inventory Database (MID) is a Perl-based CGI interface to manage the machines on and off your network, both from the IP assignment perspective and the asset-tracking perspective. On top of acting as a frontend to a handful of MySQL tables, it handles IP assignment and acts as a frontend to the configuration files for BIND, YP, and DHCPD to reduce the chance for typos in the configuration files which tend to bring down service.

New tables in the database (which resulted in adding and extending fields within almost all of the tables), cleanups the output, true user access levels, numerous changes to the codebase to simplify and streamline it some more, numerous bugfixes, and a bunch of other changes.

1.10

This release breaks apart and rebuilds the administrative interface to
include user/password management (including the building of all the
pages for the interface and all of the code to handle the password
management), updates the admin config to allow for addition and
deletion of OSes in the environment, moves the DNS serial number
calculation out of the actual file and into the database (where it
belongs), fixes some minor typos, realigns some database fields into
a new table, updates the online docs, and includes some rudimentary
DNS, YP, and DHCPd config file headers in the distribution.

1.9

This release adds Modify and Delete buttons to the Query output page,
an IP entry to the descriptions table, and javascript to handle the
"close this window" functionality for the help pop-ups. It cleans up
the output of the display function (used for displaying the results of
the query, modify, and delete options), but it definitely makes the
code a little nastier. The output is now much friendlier on the eyes,
but still lacking any real color. It fixes a configuration problem
that left a bunch of /cgi-bin/ items hardcoded to that location
(instead of taking the value defined in the Makefile), a typo in the
describe table for the alias help, some typos in the README, and the
cookie update (now, the cookie will 'refresh' with each use, and,
providing that the cookie hasn't expired, it will update the life of
the cookie; this will reduce unnecessary re-logins). It also adds
header links to the display section when displaying the contents of
the database (this allows on-the-fly resorting of the data).
