[Hcoop-discuss] Add Domain Tool

[rob at hcoop.net]

I wrote a bash script to setup, configure, and localize all the dns and
www files used by domtool and apache.  I think it makes it a lot easier to
deal with my domains when everything accessible in my home directory -- A
lot less for me to type out and remember thats for sure.   Basically what
it does is, setups new domains with a default www and dns file.  Then it
creates a bunch of symbolic links to useful files like dns config, www
config, and apache logs.  It also creates creates an htdocs, cgi-bin dir
and appends a dns entry to the parent domain if the domain you are trying
to add is a subdomain.  After all this it runs domtool.

Bash probably isn't the best language for this but this script turned out
to be a little more involved than I thought it was going to be.  Also, it
works OK for me but thats not to say it isn't bug free.  In anycase, if
this is useful for anyone else here ya go!  Hopefully someone hasn't
already written a tool to do this otherwise I wasted a good 4 hours.
