Node Director 4.2.1 released
The Director is a system and network management software featuring centralized user/host management, software distribution, directory management and more. Release 4.2.1 introduces the new domain template mechanism and prepares for the forthcoming release 0.12 of the Web frontend BigClerk.
The new domain template mechanism makes it much easier to get services like DNS, DHCP, NIS, local /etc/passwd, etc. attached to the Director by providing parameterisable templates for commonly used services. So far, the "DNS Zone" template for BIND based name servers and the "ISC DHCP Config" template for ISC DHCP servers are included.
Please read the release notes or the online reference manual on http://nodedirector.bigsister.ch/documentation.html for more information.

Node Director 4.2.0 released
The Director is a system and network management software featuring centralized user/host management, software distribution, directory management and more. Release 4.2.0 fixes the famous last stability bug(TM), brings more text into the reference manual and implements the concept of host assigned users.
Stability. The most annoying "timed out waiting for agent activity" bug has been worked around. The spurious problem of jobs staying in the job queue forever has been solved.
Host assigned users: assigning users and groups to single hosts or entire host classes is supported now and makes it possible to define what users are known/may logon to those hosts.
Please see the release notes or changelog for more detailed information.
