Ok, it’s finally here! The latest version is out with several new features that I’m sure many will like. Go to the download page to get it!

• PTR zone changes -- I’ve adjusted how PTR domains are stored and tracked in the system. This requires that all PTR records be part of a valid PTR domain in the system. To ensure that these domains exist, if you add a new subnet that is in an IP range that is not covered by an existing PTR domain, you will be prompted to create one at that time. This might be a bit confusing at first, but it is necessary.
• Firefox 3.0 fixes -- There were some rendering issues with the “task bar” and the canvas pie chart.
• Locations -- Now you can track basic information about the location of a device.
• Custom Attributes -- The ability to add user defined bits of information. (first draft of this one)
• Example .htaccess file for restricting the dcm.pl tool
• Subnet display page now uses workspace plugins while rendering.
• Many bug fixes...

Have a go at it, don’t forget to run the upgrade php script if you are upgrading, and please post some comments/feedback etc. in the forum!

Ok, so my last news item about an update coming soon did not take into account that apparently summer time is a much more busy time in my life. I am still making progress however and have been making some deep level updates that are taking longer than I had expected. There are some new developments with PTR records I had to deal with.

The good news is that I at least now have a forum set up. I hope that you will find it useful to ask questions and more importantly, leave your thoughts on how things are working out. The more comments and suggestions I get the better. This is a fairly new project and the more input from the public I can get, the better!.

So, drop us a comment in the forum and help get it going! Thanks!

I figured I’d let you know that I’m working on a few things. It’s been pretty busy for me with some trips for work, etc. Here is a list of some of the stuff that is coming soon in the next version.

• Firefox 3.0 fixes -- There were some rendering issues with the “task bar” and the canvas pie chart.
• Locations -- Now you can track basic information about the location of a device.
• Custom Attributes -- The ability to add user defined bits of information. (first draft of this one)
• Many bug fixes.. Some DNS related things etc.

Anyway, I’m still here. Just trying to find time for everything in my life. Thanks!

It’s finally here! The first release is now available on the download page. Please give it a try and see what you think. Don’t forget to report any bugs you find. See the contact page for ways of helping out the project (like patches and testing and comments and food and whatever!). Thanks to all of you who have helped test the installer and other various things over the past few months. You have helped more than you know! Keep it up.

I’ve finally had a little bit of time to do a few cosmetic things. As you can see the site has a new look. I’m playing around with a few things so I’m sure you will notice changes.

I’m still looking for a logo. I’ve got what I think is a pretty good idea, just no skills with the graphics. If you’re interested in helping, please contact me. I’ll be playing with it a bit and hopefully I can come up with something.

Also, I’ve built a new alpha package as of the 18th. I’ve been giving it out to people that ask and I’ve not heard any issues back about it. I’ve got plans to update it in preparation for an upgrade process as new versions are released. Once that is in place, I plan on releasing a public version for all!

Don’t forget to post bugs and feature requests on the bug site!
