Re: Help needed with user authentication
Thanks for that... I dounf coovachilli and installed it, now my freeradius wont start.. when i type: radiusd -X i get a whole lot of errors, any ideas where i could have gone wrong? We have a cisco 2800 or 2850 on its way from the company we have purchased our internet link from, so i am not sure if that can do the captive portal thing? On 19/01/2011 4:24 AM, Fajar A.

Help needed with user authentication
Hey, i am new so sorry that i know nothing about Freeradius. Basically, i found a tutorial and followed it to get Freeradius2, Mysql and Daloradius working together.. that part is ok. But i am confused with this: I want to have a wireless network, that will be open, and when a user connects and tries to browse they get redirected to a page where they have to login, and that will talk to freeradius to make sure the user is authorised, then it will accept them and continue to where they were trying to browse to.. Thats basically what i need, but how does Freeradius do that? Where is that page so i can edit it with my logo or whatever? Or do i need more software to have that login page? Please assist, am desperate here to get this working.. thanks in advance! - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
