Subject: [NoCat] Identifying an access point?
Message-ID: <BAY117-F33238086F3DBD835A31D88F3720@phx.gbl>

Is there anyway to identify which access point a user is logging in from?

I would like to identify the access point and store that value as a hidden 
field on the login.html page. I can then pass that value along to my web 
page and php.

Does anyone know how to do this? Has it been done?

thanks in advance!!

replace the contents of the original "detect-fw.sh" with below or look
for "Linux 2.4" and change it to "Linux 2.6". The script has not been
updated and is looking for Kernel ver 2.4 and you are using 2.6

copy below:


#!/bin/sh

export PATH=$PATH:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin

# Have we been explicitly told which firewall scripts to install?
if [ -n "$1" -a -n "$2" -a -d "$2/$1" ]; then
   FIREWALL=$1
   shift

# Do we have iptables *and* are running Linux 2.6?
#
elif which iptables >/dev/null 2>&1 && \
 test X"`uname -sr | cut -d. -f-2`" = X"Linux 2.6"; then
   FIREWALL=iptables
   FW_BIN=iptables

#
# Or do we have ipchains?
#
elif which ipchains >/dev/null 2>&1; then
   FIREWALL=ipchains
   FW_BIN=ipchains

#
# Or ip_filter (e.g. *BSD, Solaris, HP-UX, etc)?
# <http://www.ipfilter.org/>
#
elif which ipf >/dev/null 2>&1; then
ipf_running="`ipf -V | grep 'Running' | awk '{print $2}'`";
   if [ "$ipf_running" = "yes" ]; then
       FIREWALL="ipfilter"
       FW_BIN=ipf
   else
       echo "ERROR: ip_filter appears to exist, but we're not postive
that it's running"
       echo "1. You must be root for us to verify this"
       echo "2. Check that it's compiled in your kernel (either
staticlly or a loaded module)"
   fi

# Or packetfilter (OpenBSD 3.0+)
elif which pfctl >/dev/null 2>&1; then
   FIREWALL=pf
   FW_BIN=pfctl

else
   echo "No supported firewalls detected! Check your path."
   echo "Supported firewalls include: iptables, ipchains, ipf, pf."
   exit 1
fi

echo $(which $FW_BIN) found.

# Remove the existing *.fw links in /usr/local/nocat/bin (or wherever
this is being run from)
TARGET=$1
SOURCE=libexec
if [ -n "$TARGET" ]; then
   rm -f $TARGET/*.fw

   # Then add new symlinks for each *.fw file in the appropriate
firewall directory.
   for src in $SOURCE/$FIREWALL/*.fw; do
       dest=$TARGET/$(basename $src)
       echo "$src -> $dest"
       cp $src $dest

Subject: [NoCat] Read owners from the server?
Message-ID: <web-15507038@mailbe05.swip.net>

Hi all,
I have a terrible question! I hope someone of you could 
help me: I would like that the owners'list could stay in 
the server...
I try to explain: I have NoCat server and NoCat gateway on 
two separate machines. I use Radius for authentication, 
and a Postgres database to store informations. Everything 
works great. On the gateway, I set MembersOnly = 1 because 
I don't want anybody can skip authentication. With 
TrustedGroups = Any, everyone authenticates is logged in 
as Member... and it's ok.
But now, I would like that the server could send some 
attribute to tell the gateway: "this one is an Owner!" 
I've tried to send a NoCat-Groups or a NoCat-Groups-Admin 
attribute (I naturally included dictionary.nocat in the 
Radius' dictionary file), but it seems that the gateway 
totally ignores the attributes that the server sends. 
Infact, if I set TrustedGroups = NOCAT, and the user that 
authenticates is in NOCAT group, the gateway admit him in 
the Public class.
My problem is that I will not have the gateway at office, 
but only the server. I wrote a simple PHP web interface to 
permit my remote gateway admin to insert and delete his 
users. But, at this time, he can't insert any Owner - 
because NoCat reads the Owners'list only from nocat.conf 
on the gateway.
I know that my question is very strange, but I would 
appreciate if anybody can address me: what file can I 
modify to made this change? It's very important to me! 
Please help...
Thanks
Monica

serve a splash page for network 10.0.0.0, and another splash for network
20.0.0.0? How to implement it??? Anyone? TKS!!!

Tks for the response Doug. This might not work since the NoCat server is
actually behind a router, and the networks, behind this router. If I start 2
or more instances of the NoCat server, there is no way I can tell each to
listen to a specific network. This option does not exist on the nocat.conf
file. I can only specify which is the INTERNAL network, and which is the
EXTERNAL one. Since those will not change, I was hoping to change something
in the gateway code so it can treat each origin network differently. 

Here is the topology we are using:

              +------+      +-----+      +--------+
N1|-----------|ROUTER|------|NOCAT|------|INTERNET| 
N2|-----------|      |      |     |      |        |
              +------+      +-----+      +--------+
This works if all users are to receive the exact same splash page. I can't
figure out a way to serve each network (N1 & N2) a different content, based
on the origin IP address of each. If there was a way to customize the
application to do that, this would be a killing software. BTW, we are
adopting this scenario on a service provider, and it seems to be handling
everything quite well. But now it is time to add a little more complexity to
it.

The InternalDevice element and the LocalNetwork element should control what
noCat listens to.

Are you running Splash or Auth?

Either way both conf files contain these elements.

We are running Auth. Can you point me out the part of the conf file where I
can set which network to monitor...?

Tks Doug!

The InternalDevice element and the LocalNetwork element should control what
noCat listens to.

Are you running Splash or Auth?

Either way both conf files contain these elements.

Tks for the response Doug. This might not work since the NoCat server is
actually behind a router, and the networks, behind this router. If I start 2
or more instances of the NoCat server, there is no way I can tell each to
listen to a specific network. This option does not exist on the nocat.conf
file. I can only specify which is the INTERNAL network, and which is the
EXTERNAL one. Since those will not change, I was hoping to change something
in the gateway code so it can treat each origin network differently. 

Here is the topology we are using:

              +------+      +-----+      +--------+
N1|-----------|ROUTER|------|NOCAT|------|INTERNET| 
N2|-----------|      |      |     |      |        |
              +------+      +-----+      +--------+
This works if all users are to receive the exact same splash page. I can't
figure out a way to serve each network (N1 & N2) a different content, based
on the origin IP address of each. If there was a way to customize the
application to do that, this would be a killing software. BTW, we are
adopting this scenario on a service provider, and it seems to be handling
everything quite well. But now it is time to add a little more complexity to
it.

Hello my friends,
 
My question would be... knowing the IP addresses of my network users, is it
possible to serve different splash pages to different users, based solely on
the IP address they have? For instance, an user has the IP 10.10.10.10,
whereas another user has the IP 20.20.20.20 (2 different networks). Can I
serve a splash page for network 10.0.0.0, and another splash for network
20.0.0.0? How to implement it??? Anyone? TKS!!!

Look for a file called gateway.conf 

This has all the basic settings for the gateway instance of NoCat.

Warning it has been several years since I have had my hand on a Nocat box. I
am going from memory and looking at the files in the package and not an
actual running install.

Doug, the internal element on the nocat config file should be binded to the
internal ethernet interface, as well as the local network parameter. On the
diagram I sent earlier, this would be the network between the router and the
nocat server. It has nothing to do with the networks behind the router. 

Tks, though!

Right you are. Mutitasking strikes again. At least I wasn't doing this over
my phone while driving, then I would have a real excuse.


Is there any reason you are running a router in between the two? Why not
attach the two networks to the NoCat gateway directly and have two virtual
ports or real on the nocat box. Then the two networks would appear on the
nocat box.

Option two is to setup two networks between the router and the NoCat box
either real or virtual and point each segment down a separate path to the
NoCat box.

Hello Doug,

Yes, we need the router (actually, this is our Internet Edge Router). We
have several networks behind it, not only a couple. We can't attach the
networks directly to the Nocat server. We may give option 2 you mention a
shot, if nothing else comes up. We have some pretty handy programmers here
that are willing to try messing around with the code as well. Who knows...
They might be able to solve the problem! I will let you know!

Many tks for the support!

Rgds from Brazil,

Marco Filippetti

I'm looking for an OS that let's me run a wireless "hotspot" with an splash
page/walled garden that contains several pages of information but that has
no need for Internet access.
I presume NoCat lets me do this?

Regards, Evert Bopp.

Message-ID: <005901c6a500$cebfd7e0$f800a8c0@ATMLogic.local>

Just wondering if someone can recommend a solid wireless setup for
connecting 3 Buildings.

Looking for ideas on what hardware I should be using to keep things secure,
yet fast... And perhaps on a low budget.

Buildings are all within 1/2 to 1mile of each other and if labeled buildings
A B C the Highspeed internet is at building A, and building B already has a
60' tower both building A and C can see the top of the tower.

My thoughts are:

A) Get something working with the Linksys WR54G with a custom bin and high
gain antenna and sheilded cable...

B) Bite the bullet and go with Motorola Canopy hardware... $$$

C) Buy some offshore highpower outdoor hardware (e.g. Ovislink) setup and
outdoor bridge.

D) Some other idea.


Thanks

If this is for a commercial setup I don't know how comfortable I would
be with Linksys, just in terms of accountability and support in the
event problems arise.

You don't mention any speed requirements, but if it needs to be fast
(i.e. comparable to fast ethernet), Proxim's Tsunami series might be
something to look into.  They are enterprise bridges however, and are
priced accordingly.

Of course, you could probably do the whole thing for under $1000 if
you used cheap bridges, it just comes down to how reliable it needs to
be.

Since all your buildings are so close together, you might want to
check with your local phone and cable companies.  You might be able to
get a good deal on metro ethernet/fiber.  The reliability of ethernet
is always going to be better than wireless.

Message-ID: <8cf933780607130231t776f1f13vf04062e985d90bfc@mail.gmail.com>

Hi Folks,

I've upgraded/migrated my ageing Authserv from RH9 to Solaris10_x86.

My Apache2.2.0 and Perl 5.8.8 is from Blastwave.org

All seems to be fine except for the final login redirect.

I think I have a Perl path problem as the Authserv is looking for Suns bungled

   /usr/perl5/5.8.4

rather than Blastwave's perl

   /opt/csw/bin/perl/5.8.8

Can I tell NoCat which to use?

I'm tired and starting to get careless.

This works now thanks to a chmod 700 of /usr/local/nocat/pgp (obviously!)

fine.

Message-ID: <11014.67.170.170.80.1152844045.squirrel@67.170.170.80>

Hi all,

I have just relased our latest version of the Ewrt Open-Source firmware
for the Linksys WRT routers.  Ewrt-0.4.3 will be the last release in this
series, which still operates on a very stable but old kernel and codebase
from Linksys.

Major improvements to the NoCatSplash code have been done again, and we
feel that this is now the stablest autonomous captive-portal
authentication software you will find.  One major new feature is the
ability to keep a static lease-file defined in the configuration, so that
the authentication database will survive a reboot or restart of the
splashd server.  A few other functional bugs, illuminated through
high-volume testing on our commercial networks, have also been fixed with
this release.

More space is available for r/w storage on the flash in this release.  We
are also hosting some older ipkgs, installable automatically after
installation.

For more information on the release, please see:
http://www.portless.net/menu/ewrt/

In addition we are committing to CVS this week a new experimental build
with our own custom 2.4.32 kernel and uClibc-0.9.28 libraries and
toolchain, which  allows us to directly utilize the latest ipackages
compiled for OpenWRT kamikaze.  We have also started testing support for
the WRT54Gv5 /v6, WRT54GSv5 and WRTSL54GS routers, as well as some of the
other models based upon the same hardware from Buffalo, Motorola, and
Asus.  We hope to quickly improve our build system to accomodate the
Netgear WGT634U as well.

Please also consider joining our development list at:

Subject: [NoCat] access.fw defunct
Message-ID: <ECEOLDFHJDHPKBHPIPBPGEIHFHAA.vacio@winfirst.com>

hi folks, 

I'm having some trouble with NoCat Splash.  Once a user times out, he can't
log back in.

When I do a ps -effw, I see multiple instances of:
root      1159   539  0 Jul07 ?        00:00:00 [access.fw] <defunct>

I've read that these aren't supposed to matter, but I'm suspicious.  Is
there a fix around to get splash to close these old tasks properly?

Any help is appreciated, 

/Rob

Subject: [NoCat] Docs for NoCatSplash
Message-ID: <44BD0E65.9020807@polywog.org>

Hi,

I just downloaded and installed NoCatSplash (splashd). I have some 
question regarding nocat.conf file. I tried to look in the man pages but 
there were somethings in the nocat.conf that weren't in the man pages.

First off, what I want to do is simple authentication. I have an idea on 
how this is going to work (with some coding on my part php/Perl/etc.), 
and it would be nice if nocat had some provisions for it or docs on how 
it could be accomplished.

1) GatewayMode: it says it's not implemented other than Open. There's no 
mention of Gateway Mode in the man page. What is it for? What are the 
options?

2) Why have LoginTimeout if GatewayMode isn't implemented? If it's 
unrelated, then what exactly is it for?

3) AuthServiceAddr: what is this for and how does AuthService work? It's 
not at all discussed in the man page.

Background:

What I want to do is have a captive portal which asks for one or more 
bit of information (username/password). It sends this login info to a 
backend authentication mechanism (i.e.: PAM, Perl script, shell script, 
RADIUS, etc...) and based on the reply (or return code if it's a script) 
it lets the user through, or keeps the user in the captive portal.

Thanks a lot in advance!

What you want is NoCatAuth. NoCatSplash is the C port of NoCatAuth,
but it doesn't have everything implemented. The reason that all those
unused directives appear in the nocat.conf file is because the
NoCatSplash conf file is the same as the NoCatAuth gateway conf file.
NoCatSplash currently only supports OPEN authentication; it really is
just a splash page, nothing more. If you want user authentication,
grab NoCatAuth. It provides for a gateway (like NoCatSplash does) AND
an authentication server, where you can use PAM, LDAP, DB, etc to
authenticate users.

Subject: [NoCat] NoCatAuth across a LAN/WAN
Message-ID: <44C679A6.9010906@polywog.org>

I have just configured and set up NoCatAuth with the two server, 
separate networks, NAT, DHCP, caching named, and MySQL Auth 
configuration ... i am guessing it's a pretty standard out of the box 
config. One NIC is for the external, and one is for the wireless. The 
wireless NIC is attached to a simple Linksys router.

This is just for proof of concept and prettying it up for my bosses. 
Eventually, this is going to be a similar setup except, that we are 
going to be using Cisco Aironet 1200's serving multiple SSID's. One of 
those SSID's is going to be for our "public" wireless network and the 
VLAN associated with it is going to be trunked, and routed, all the way 
to the gateway's "internal" interface several blocks away before being 
dumped out onto the Internet.

In looking at the nocat.log files on both servers I noticed that there 
were references to MAC addresses while doing authentication. If 
dhcp-helper is configured at the routers and the APs are all on the same 
VLAN, is there anything special I would need to think about before using 
NoCatAuth? Does anyone already have a similar setup to this in 
operation? Are there any tips you might recommend based on some caveats 
and gotchas with the increased complexity?

Thanks in advance,
Elmo
