I actually wrote a management interface, that also can manage PowerDNS
(mySQL) with powerdns(BIND) or BIND slaves.
It's a whole lot more than just a DNS manager but it would also work as
such.
Slave's are automatically fetching their configuration changes from the
master (PowerDNS/mySQL).
This can be found at http://www.ispworks.org . Have a look. It might be
useful.
