Web-based address management

[Gordon A. Lang]

I'm not sure that the IP address management is the key part of the original 
poster's question, but I'd like to chime in with my experience with a 
particular product we just purchased.

Has anyone used "IP Control" from Diamond IP (now part of International 
Network Services)?

We just bought it and our initial feeling is very good.  It directly manages 
ISC DHCP as well as ISC BIND, but it also integrates with MS.  It uses MySQL 
and tomcat, and provides a mechanism for large scale policy enforcement.  We 
don't really need the large scale aspect -- we like the flexibility.
