i’m still on the radius and choova-chilli thing. I began working on a tutorial for ubuntu but with fedora i was more ahead of things but i’m not jet done.
The chilli.iptables file besides the chilli.sock file need a closer look. Tomorrow i will read about iptables which i always wanted to understand.
here is the ubuntu tutorial
Something else is not going so well, i think its the hotspotlogin.cgi page dosent encryped the password right because the freeRadius Server sais something about the passwords didn’t match.
When i try the radtest command than everything is accepted.













Firewall
The creators of chillispot created an iptables script for us to use!, see:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/ChillispotHotspot/8.04
I’ve assumed the creators of Coovachilli have done the same?
To manually set firewall rules for port forwarding see:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessAccessPoint
Blocking ports requires extra rules.
Firewall update
up.sh ia the script we need to run to enable firewall rules with coovachilli
/usr/local/etc/chilli/up.sh
Sorry about making a mess with the “coova howto wiki”
I didn’t want to change to much untill you had a chance to review.
Nils,
Have you made any further progress with you ubuntu help for coova-chilli?
I have been working through it all week, my clients are connecting obtaining a dhcp lease but no redirection takes place.
Do you have any ideas as to why this would occur?
Regards
Nick Sharp
hello nick
yes i had this problem many times but unfortunately i don’t remember what was the trick.
when you think about iptables that something pops up in my mind:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
did you do that?
probably yes …
the setup works fine at work but i have to reconfigure it
