Hi folks,

Sorry if it seems I am spamming the list but I just wanted to say thanks for 
the help.

I have now updated to 6.0.1 and it is looking much better:-

The 'Null' and 'BlackHole' authentication module problems are gone.
We have our corporate logo back too!

Oh so many questions about 'customisation' and 'branding' though but the main 
ones:-

How can I hide and/or replace the icon on the portal screens?
How can I change the colour schemes?
I was able to do most of this in 5.7 by modifying the main 'styles.css' file 
but the new inuit.css system
renders this file uneditable. I can see the components/layers that produce this 
file but how does
one 'compile' them to build the new CSS file after modifications.

I do have some technical portal issues that I cannot seem to work around no 
matter what settings I use (some of the
individual bits worked in 5.7 though).

I have created a 'Choice' module as the only module in my ROOT.

The choice module has three sub-modules added:-

Choice 1 - An LDAP authentication module to register the Device - This works 
and moves the device to the production network as expected.

Choice 2 - An E-Mail authentication module to register the device via an E-Mail 
activation link - This sort of works.
The system reports a message - 'Couldn't register your device....' below which 
it says it has registered it successfully and is
enabling access. - Surely they can't both be true!!!
The activation e-mail is indeed sent to the correct e-mail address along with 
details of the local account that it has created for the user.
It will however not accept the activation link and comes up with the message 
'Please use the device you are registering to validate
the e-mail link'. Which of course I am doing! (5.7 you could 'activate' it from 
anywhere) - What could be wrong - any ideas?

The only thing I can see may be causing this is that I am doing role assignment 
(and subsequent VLAN assignment) based on
the E-Mail account used - Using rules in the e-mail source definition. But I 
was doing this in 5.7 and it was working beautifully.
We have 2 separate universities (Falmouth and Exeter) using the campus networks 
and need to move them onto the correct subnets
whenever possible and this seemed to be a good way of doing it - Not all users 
are potentially authenticable via LDAP!

Choice 3 - A 'chained' authentication module which consists of first an LDAP 
authentication module followed by a message
                module containing a link to the 'Device-Registration' portal. 
The Authentication stage is working as expected and the
                Device Registration stage is sort of working but it is 
registering the device to 'default' and not the user that has just 
authenticated.
It is kind of important that we have a record of who registers what devices but 
at the moment all gaming devices would be 'owned'
by the user 'default'. Maybe I am misunderstanding the DR process but this is 
how I interpreted it as working - First authenticate a
user then let them register a device.

Regards

Andrew
