> Alot of people on campus would love to tie their Web apps into Maintain.  
> Helpdesk for example would love to be able to tie their issues tracking tools into some of the Maintain features so they could, for example, disable a host from within HelpDesk, or find a Resnet user via IP or MAC.  Currently these features are available to a point, but it requires direct access to the database and is read only.
> This could also lead to the creation of scriptable command line tools for Maintain.  This would be a huge boon to admins when a virus hits, being able to lookup owners via Mac and IP address and inform them and disable the hosts at the same time.
