The design of Galiumfred

Galiumfred has been designed to create a web based solution for DNS registrations. It is based on the hard work from Timgws. This page will cover the design of the current galiumfred.

The backend

The backend is kept on a DB using MySQL. It uses a the table strucure required for MyDNS, so the package can use a galiumfred DB natively. This is to prevent a re-invention of the wheel, as MyDNS is a good solution for the problem at hand. This also allows for the other great MyDNS tools to be used against galiumfred.

Below are the tables in the galiumfred DB.
