@biomecanoid:

one more thing that doesnt work is redirection, meaning that when user type a URL like www.google.com they must be forwarded to the login page which now doesn't happen

Can voucher work with 'size' instead of 'time' ? The reply is : No.

Redirection :
Do you mean :
http://www.google.com
or
https://www.google.com
?

When I'm opening a browser which has a default home **http://**www.google.com then I will be redirected to the login page.
If this doesn't happen on your setup, then something is wrong. DNS probably ….
Detail your setup.

@shockwavecs:

….
TLDR; how do I remove MAC additions from the CP via a remote call (POST) or a simple command line call?

Command line using a script ?!
Check out /etc/inc/captiveportail.inc and files like /usr/local/www/services_captiveportal_mac.php
Everything is there so you can write a small php file that iterates over all auto-added registered MAC.

No, I'm not. Just web configurator and captive portals. But I agree with you, it is to messy. I'll just reinstall and reconfigure pfSense when the time is right.  Thank you for your time.

I solved something.
I enabled authentication with a local user and Enable Pass-through MAC automatic additions

Hi guys,
I have the same problem but I could't solve.
CP with local user authentication and "Enable Pass-through MAC automatic additions", squid3 not work (trasparent e non trasparent mode)

All requests are managed nly by CP , but i want:

clients–-->CP----->Squid3&SquidGuard(Trasparent Mode)----WAN

anyone can help me?

Please follow this post, it is what you want.

Hi

Gertjan & CMB

Thanks for your valuable inputs.

As suggested I have made a clean install of 2.2.6 and no more database locked errors are found.

Then I changed 2.2.6 captiveportal.inc & index.php for manual logout page as mentioned in https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=77143.0

Everything is working fine now with manual logout page.

Earlier when i upgraded to 2.2.6, I used to copy modified captiveportal.inc & index.php from version 2.2.4 to get manual logout page. I didnt modify 2.2.6 version captiveportal.inc & index.php for manual logout page. So that's why I was getting database error after upgrading to 2.2.6.

Sorry, it was my fault, I should have made changes to 2.2.6 version captiveportal.inc & index.php files to get logout page.

Thanks & regards

apparently now is working fine.

after of 14 days any restart of database.

thanks

You should know all about the Google Authentication API.
The PHP language shouldn't have any secrets to you.
You need to be an pfSense user AND know how pfSEnse is written and works …
Then you could consider implementing your needs.

I think your next best solution will be : post a message here Post a bounty but read the how-to-post first.

I change some of my passwords weekly, but this could just as easily be done every day if need be.

I keep a list of passwords in a text file, with one password on each line. I use a short script (rotatefile.sh) on the RADIUS server to pick up the password from the top of the file and put it at the bottom:

#!/bin/sh

Take first line of wordfile

pw=head -n 1 /root/wordfile.txt
echo "$pw"

Delete first line in wordfile

sed -i 1d /root/wordfile.txt

Append wordfile with word taken from top

echo $pw >> /root/wordfile.txt

I then call this script from within another script which picks up the password from the file and uses it to update the entry for that login on the RADIUS server. Whether you use a flat-file or a SQL backend, either way it works:

t4=/root/rotatefile.sh

The t4 environment parameter can then be used to perform a 'sed' change on your users file or be parsed into your SQL database. As Derelict has suggested, you can post the username on the form itself if you need to.

I've modified the setup so we now use 2 VM's; 1 for the setup of VPN, and 1 with a LAN interface to run CaptivePortal on:

Will this setup still work? It seems the MAC addresses from the client devices (10.30.0.0/16) are dropped for the traffic that flows through the VPN tunnel. The DHCP requests however are still done with correct source MAC.

A followup question; the traffic flows through both VM's, ping works correctly:

But on return for TCP traffic the LAN interface on the first VM returns 'host unreachable' for the client device (and TCP traffic is never returned to the client device):

@muswellhillbilly:

I think you might have better luck if you ask in your own language on one of the foreign forum pages.

Perdona por nuestro ingles  :-[.

Necesitamos que puedan funcionar un numero especifico de dispositivos simultaneamente con el mismo usuario, pero que no sea necesario hacer "logout" para expulsar a uno de ellos y que pueda entrar el siguiente. Queremos que funcione como si estuviese la opción  "Disable concurrent logins" activa, la cual expulsa automáticamente el primer dispositivo autentificado, pero usando un mismo usuario en 2,3 o 4 dispositivos a la vez.

Gracias!

Short answer: Post your firewall rules and maybe someone can help.

hahaha, i updated 2.2.6 and OK. tks for help

Hi,

First things first : The visitor, the client, can - and they often do - block popup windows.

If this wasn't the case:
The default setup contains the possibility to have a popup opened when the visitor / clients logins in. See here : https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/blob/RELENG_2_2/etc/inc/captiveportal.inc#L286
What need to be done : adding Javascript code that shows a count down code (you'll find many examples on the net). When this popup windows is created, it should be 'started' a variable (which exists) that contains the initial value : the "hard time out".

But, as said above : most clients / visitors will never see this windows, because they do as you and I : blocking popups.

An idea might be : redirected people to a web page (on pfsense) after login.
This page contains the counter. On the page, advise people to keep the window open …

Or : advise them to set an alarm on their watch when they logged in .... ;) (easy, no coding needed).

For info : the new version (2.2.6) has a new httpd version which includes bug fixes.

You probably hit this bug

https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/5622

You can search your log files for the respective message:

logportalauth[63045]: Zone: main_zone - Successfully reinitialized
tables for main_zone – database has been reset. logportalauth[63045]: Zone: main_zone - Error during table main_zone
creation. Error message: database is locked. Resetting and trying again.

With some luck its resolved in 2.2.6, the workaround is pretty simple.

Yes. Good access to global DNS prior to punching through the portal is a requirement for CP to function.

Well, DNS queries have to return some IP address for the client to try to connect to.

I could solve the problem by adjusting the MTU on the wanted Interface to be around 1400 Bytes . thanks for your trying to help
