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?

It's called captive portal
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captive_portal

Try
coova.org/CoovaChilli http://coova.org/CoovaChilli


What we usually do:
- get a wireless AP which has captive portal feature. I find it easier 
than having to install a captive portal manually on a server.
For example, if you're willing to use third-party firmware, dd-wrt 
support these devices:

- get a radius server (you already have that)
- get a login page. Something like 
http://net-mai.net/files/hotspotlogin.php.txt

- adjust settings as required

Help needed with user authentication

2011-01-18 Thread Luke Hammond

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!
