UserMagicalInterface

From DcUsers

We are working to give users more control on their own resources, but it is a difficult task. We are working on a tool, but it is still heavily work in progress. It works correctly, but its skill is currently limited to a few tasks.

Requirements

This tool is accessible through a mail interface (later, we might add other types of frontends), and does care about security and privacy. You need to get a GPG/PGP key, and get it registered in a safe manner in our database (contact an administrator for this).

As you may send secret information in the mail, you would like to hide it. Use the key EF410567 (fingerprint: D0CC BBA5 5460 719D 515C 11E6 E770 C685 EF41 0567), signed by the DuckCorp Administrators, for encryption. This is an optional, but recommanded, feature.

Usage

Once it is done, you just need to send a signed mail to "MilkyPond Administration Officer" <banya=hATe=milkypond.org> with a list of commands in the body. Empty lines and comments (lines starting with "#") are ignored. The subject is purely informational, for you to identify the reply to the corresponding demand.

Available Commands

  • DNS INFO
to get the list of DNS zones you can manage (and probably more in the future)
  • DNS GET ZONE <zone>
to get the DNS <zone> content (attached in the reply)
  • DNS SET ZONE <zone> @<i>
to replace the current DNS <zone> content with the <i>st/nd/rd/th attachment (text/plain accepted only)
the zone syntax is checked before replacement
