Description-en: LDAP based DNS management system.
ldap2dns is a program to create DNS (Domain Name Service) records directly
from an LDAP directory. It can and should be used to replace the secondary
name-server by a second primary one. ldap2dns reduces all kind of
administration overhead: No more flat file editing, no more zone file
editing. After having installed ldap2dns, the administrator only has to
access the LDAP directory.
.
ldap2dns is designed to write ASCII data files used by tinydns from the
djbdns package, but also may be used to write .db-files used by named as
found in the BIND package.
