We're off to see the Wizard...

I am "finishing-up" the interface for the new Control Server. If you would like to preview the new server, login here: http://xml.publicip.net/manage/ (You will have to create a new login using the link on that page). It would be nice to get some feedback at this point.

As the title implies, the new Control Server uses wizards to setup and configure your zones. Here's an excerpt from the welcome screen:

Public IP's Zone Control provides an easy way to configure and manage your
hotspots, or "Zones" as they are referred to here. Most of the configurations
are done using two wizards i have developed (an introduction to each is provided
to the left). The Master wizard is a concept i developed to aid in the
implementation of multiple Zones. Running the Master Wizard will create a
"blueprint" for you to build your Zones. When you run the Zone Wizard you will
create an instance of a zone described in you master template or "blueprint".
Once you have a Zone you can modify the settings and configurations for that
Zone separately for exact customization.

Now it's back to work on the authentication programs and the ZoneCD. It's time to start pulling it all together (and fixing a few bugs). It's hard to say how development will move the next few days, my wife is about to give birth to my fourth daughter :-0 If she doesn't go into labor by Saturday, the doctor is inducing her...
