Yes I do plan on using a RoR application to make the changes to the MySQL database. So I think this is coming together. However, the username and password... where is the user responsible for using those credentials.
Would a user connect to my WiFi network, then authenticate against the RADIUS server using credentials obtained through a Ruby on Rails application? Here's the workflow I am thinking to build this: 1. User connects to WiFi network. 2. User is directed to a Ruby on Rails application. 3. Application authorizes user to connect, creates credentials and propagates them to FreeRadius. 4. Application gives credentials to user. 5. User enters credentials (where?) I need hotspot functionality so I am almost there in terms of everything I need to build. Are these points rational? Also, where are the credentials entered in #5? Wouldn't I just need to deliver an IP or something to that machine at that point? Thanks Matthew.
