Manage W2k DNS from WebBrowser?

I'm looking to automate as many aspects as possible on my W2k server, and make these tasks easily completed using a web browser. MS have provided a number of scripts and the like, and with a little bit of .asp much of the automation is not too hard. Hence, I'm not sure I like the idea of paying big $'s for a "control panel".

However, one of the more annoying things is setting up and configuring DNS. MS have provided dnsprov so much of the work is already done, but all the scripts are VB. Putting an ASP interface on-top of this is not toooo difficult, so I'm surprised that no-one has done it. That is to say, I can't seem to find any free/cheap "ASP DNS Managers".

About the best I could come up with was AspDNS, which although the name sounds good, seemed to be more difficult, and less documented than MS's job.
WinDNSMan, looks like the goods, but comes with a fairly hefty $300 price tag.

Given that I could not find any that were appropriate, I started playing around and making my own - and it's getting there ... slowly. But I don't really like 'reinventing the wheel' so to speak, and I find it hard to believe that there are no freely available, cheap and easy to use WebBrowser based DNS Management tools for W2k.

Does anyone know/use WebBased DNS tools for W2k?

Or does everyone want a copy of mine if it ever gets done? Manage W2k DNS from WebBrowser?
