You said that everyone gets authenticated through the web portal.
Why? It's not necessary to authenticate people twice. It causes
problems, as you've seen.
no one gets authenticated twice, a nice looking HTML form is the only
thing the web portal is. that's it. nothing more. the authentication is
only done once by the gateway.
You don't need the web portal authentication, unless it's for some
other purpose you're not saying.
we are sterring away from the original question here. if there is a way
to setup RADIUS to somehow send a message or configuration attribute to
the gateway to allow any clients connected to the gateway to access the
internet without extra authentication aside from simply connecting to
the gateway itself? now lets keep in mind that there are multiple
locations here and therefor are multiple gateways, all I want to know is
of there is a way to allow just some of the gateways, not all, to give
access without username/password authentication.
