Feature lost in transaction? M0n0 MAC addreses are gone?

alexus · Mar 21, 2006, 8:51 PM

I've just solve many RADIUS problems so that FreeRadius can easily work with Captive portal…. but I did noticed that pfSense Caprive portal and M0n0 are diferent,... Mono sens all data that I need such as User MAC and NAS (Mono or pfSense box) MAC... but with pfSense in getting only half of the information send to me? Why? here is what Radius gets when I'm ratting in debug mode:

Service-Type = Login-User
User-Name = "alexus"
NAS-Identifier = "pfSense.local"
NAS-Port = 0
NAS-Port-Type = Ethernet
Acct-Status-Type = Start
Acct-Authentic = RADIUS
Acct-Session-Id = "327d19a986eadf00"
Framed-IP-Address = 192.168.1.199

I thought we are running exact clone of M0n0 here? Dont we? ???

Yes we do. So I am not sure what the problem is.

alexus · Mar 21, 2006, 9:24 PM

Basically, the pfSense sends less informattion for radius accounting, I dot know why but it is… it doesnt send Calling Staton ID and Called Staton ID.... I have absolutly the same configs for Mono and Pfsense, but I getting diferent accounting responses..

Ive made a txt file where you can see the diferense in accounting records... as you can seee everything is identical but mono sends more informatiom. Also the hardware is the same, I just swaped the CF cards.... I dono, maybe some part of orogonal mono file was missing? well it has only 3 files to it... but i see you added extra page that shows the user status, and maybe that one "kill" the wariables or something?

Any ideas?

No, I don't think we missed anything. We sync'd everything that I could find.

Word is that there will be a new m0n0wall release soon. If so, then we'll most likely import the captive portal changes (again).

alexus · Mar 22, 2006, 12:35 AM

yes they have 1.23b

sullrich · Mar 22, 2006, 12:36 AM

Isn't that the FreeBSD 6 beta? Not exactly what I am talking about.

alexus · Mar 22, 2006, 12:38 AM

well I didnt really paid attention on what it runs but I know it has impruvcements for captive portal anyway…

alexus · Mar 22, 2006, 12:40 AM

what is the file name for captive portal index.php? and what is the name for accounting.php (or whatever it used to be called in mono) I want to chek if it cheks for MAC? Because in original it will not let it work if there is no user MAC….

jeroen234 · Mar 22, 2006, 6:43 AM

dit you eneable the mac check on the pfsense portal pages ?
if not than mac adress is ignored and ipadress is used

alexus · Mar 22, 2006, 12:33 PM

Isnt that function is tryyingto use MAC as both username and pass to identify user?
I will try it too? Just in case

alexus · Mar 22, 2006, 4:27 PM

jeroen234, I did the trial ran for what u sudgested, and as I said it didnt work, because this fature is designed for diferent purpuse… it works like major cable troviders do for theit clients... so that they dont have to use username and passwords... they just go online right away...

BUT, what I found is that this feature dosnt work as it desined too... It suppose to send Radius-Request when I open web brower but it doesnt... Debug off everything is attached, I used my username to login...

So, I dont know why, but big part of m0n0 functionality is gone? :(

The code is there, I promise you. Why its not working is beyond me.

alexus · Mar 22, 2006, 5:04 PM

I think, i found the proble, did you use the Captive Portal from M0n0 SVN? (http://svn.m0n0.ch/wall/branches/freebsd5/captiveportal/) Because I'm looking at the file right now and I think it is different from the one that they have in actual relseae.

sullrich · Mar 22, 2006, 5:11 PM

Their file in SVN has not even been released yet! We are not using that until they release it.

alexus · Mar 22, 2006, 5:41 PM

ok, … can i take a look on the file that you are using? did you keep the original names? and what is the location of files?

sullrich · Mar 22, 2006, 5:52 PM

Look in cvsweb.

alexus · Mar 22, 2006, 5:57 PM

i serched all over the plce but missed the directory i need (murphy's law) can u just tell me the location?

alexus · Mar 23, 2006, 2:17 AM

ok, I think the problem is in Dropdown menu that select either "defult" or "cisco" type … thats the only thing that I can think off....

sullrich · Mar 23, 2006, 2:19 AM

Did not modify that…
