You about have it though. As you see, it is highly inline so it begs to be
wrapped by a program. You could put most of what was shown here in a perl
script without too much effort. If you do, I would put customer-specific
data in a source file and build the named.conf, access.conf, master
passwd, sendmail.cw, virtusertable, aliases, etc files from it.

By restart, you mean 'kill -hup', right? You don't *really* have to stop
and start most daemons.

I would also add config for whatever web-stat program you like and/or MRTG
entries for web/mail/etc using local scripts run from cron.

This is another (few) reason(s) why FLAMS was created. It does other
things as well... It was started as a dialup ISP package, but we do
vdomains with it as well. Runs on FreeBSD and MySQL. It tracks payments
and quarrentines(sp?) customers' web sites/mail until they pay, etc...

Hope this helps in some way. - Jy@
