Hi,

beta 8 is beautiful!

Since you can list the "active" settings in routers2.conf (routers2.cgi?page=verify&rtr=none), it would be nice if there was a web page to change them and update the file. This way we can test different settings without have to ssh into the system. That would save me time!

You would probably have to password word protect it or have an "on/off" switch in the ".conf" file so those who don't want it, don't have to use.

I might try to program it myself, if you haven't done this already, if I can keep my eyes open long enough after the kids go to sleep.

Your thoughts?

Thanks, Jeff

This would be a fairly big thing to do, and would have obvious security implications.

I would suggest a better way to achieve it is via a separate program to maintain the routers2.conf and its various subsections. This would be a side project after I get 2.17 done and dusted... of course, if anyone else wants to strart writing one I'd be happy to put it in the Contributions subdirectory...?
