SoftWare / DDT - Computer Names and IP Address Management (IPAM)
Description
DDT is an acronym for DHCP-DNS-Tools.
In practise, DDT is an IP Address Management (IPAM) service.
It has been used in the LEGI laboratory for over 10 years.
ddt (dhcp-dns-tools) is a small tool to maintain a set of computers/IP.
In order to help you in this task, ddt command has a set of action
to generated DHCP and DNS configuration files.
The tool is quite effective and tries to keep things simple but easily configurable for your site like a swiss army knife. Everything is saved in a YAML database and entries could be added, deleted, or modified by the command line.
All the command help and description is on the online manual ddt

All sources are available on the LEGI forge: http://servforge.legi.grenoble-inp.fr/svn/soft-trokata/trunk/ddt
The sources are managed via subversion (http://subversion.tigris.org/). It is very easy to stay synchronized with these sources
- initial recovery
svn checkout http://servforge.legi.grenoble-inp.fr/svn/soft-trokata/trunk/ddt soft-ddt
- the updates thereafter
svn update
It is possible to have access to writing at the forge on reasoned request to Gabriel Moreau. For issues of administration time and security, the forge is not writable without permission. For the issues of decentralization of the web, autonomy and non-allegiance to the ambient (and North American) centralism, we use our own forge...
You can propose an email patch of a particular file via the diff command.
Note that svn defaults to the unified format (-u).
Two examples:
diff -u ddt.org ddt.new > ddt.patch svn diff ddt > ddt.patch
We apply the patch (after having read and read it again) via the command
patch -p0 < ddt.patch
