      My files, right now:
      Upload these two files with the FileManager available in the Captive Portal:
      style.css - http://pastebin.com/LqLx9G5f
      already-connected.html  - http://pastebin.com/p8GRpuHQ

      These two file will be available in /var/db/cpelements as:
      captiveportal-style.css
      captiveportal-already-connected.html

      Modify these files:
      Te entire file: /usr/local/captiveportal/index.php - http://pastebin.com/jgDrEvpP

      /etc/inc/captiveportal.php :
      Replace the function portal_reply_page(…) for this one http://pastebin.com/mUzp4q3g

      Just above this new function portal_reply_page(...), add this new function already_connected(...) - http://pastebin.com/emQgMQp8

      How it work:
      At the very end of /usr/local/captiveportal/index.php - if the visitor isn't logged in yet, the login page will be show (line 237 : /* display captive portal page */).
      Just before, this test is added:

      } else if (already_connected($clientip, $clientmac)) {
      	/* display already connected page - offer logout */
       	portal_reply_page($redirurl, "already_connected",null,$clientmac,$clientip)
      

      The test uses $clientip and $clientmac, which should be known at that moment.
      already_connected($clientip, $clientmac) is the function that you added to /etc/inc/captiveportal.php, and looks up the users $sessionid in captive portal logged in user database.
      It should return a $sessionid.
      If it does, then  portal_reply_page(…) is being called with a new parameter, like this:
      portal_reply_page($redirurl, "already_connected",null,$clientmac,$clientip).

      I modified portal_reply_page(..) somewhat so it can handle the new "already_connected".
      portal_reply_page(..) will, again, lookup the users $sessionid  and then include our logout page:

      $htmltext = get_include_contents("{$g['captiveportal_path']}/captiveportal-already-connected.html");
      

      (this is the file you uploaded with the filemanager).

      Note: below, in portal_reply_page(..), I added these:

      	$htmltext = str_replace("\$PORTAL_SESSION\$", htmlspecialchars($sessionid), $htmltext);
      

      and

      	$htmltext = str_replace("#PORTAL_SESSION#", htmlspecialchars($sessionid), $htmltext);
      

      this was for debugging issues.

      What I didn't test:
      I use https portal login - I didn't test http login (I guess it should work).

      I can't implement right now is what lsense did: when the user logs in, send over a persistent (encoded) cookie with the visitors IP, MAC and session ID. This way, things could be more safe and easy to implement. (Portal visitors should accept cookies if they want t logout, of course …)
      But, right now, these variables are send over my secured https connection  (my logout page is SSL secured).

      I mentionned in my login page, this one {$g['varetc_path']}/captiveportal_{$cpzone}.html" :

      
      You can disconnect yourself.
      
      				To do so, visit this page again:
      
      				[#PORTAL_ACTION#](#PORTAL_ACTION#)
      
      Click on the link to open it already in a new window
      
      Note:
      I only use the local User Manager, build in pfSense.
      I haven't test other login possibilities like Radius,  Pass-through credits allowed per MAC address and Vouchers. I will test the last two as soon as I have some time.
      
      Pass-through MAC Auto Entry has its own 'logout' possibility.
      
      PS: I copied files and functions from my running portal pfsense box.
      It 'should' work.
      Be ready, thought, to debug if needed.
      Keep safe copies of the files you modify:
      /usr/local/captiveportal/index.php
      /etc/inc/captiveportal.php

      Edit : and where are the logs ??

        @Gertjan:

        This means a cookie will be communicated to the browser when the portal clients succeeds authentication ?
        edit: btw, from where did you send the cookie ? From /etc/inc/captiveportal.inc : end of function portal_allow() ?
        If so, when:
        @lsense:

        • modify index.php to check if redirection url is http://logout.me and check session cookie (you have to auth again to logout if you close the browser but not just the popup.)

        then correct, the session gets reused!

        I set logout cookie in /etc/inc/captiveportal.inc function portal_allow() as simply as:

        
        /* set logout cookie */	
        setcookie("logout", $sessionid);
        
        

        then in /usr/local/captiveportal/index.php:

        
        ...
        else if ($redirurl == 'http://logout.me/') {
        	if (isset($_COOKIE["logout"])) {
        		$logoutcookie = $_COOKIE["logout"];
        		setcookie("logout", "", time() - 3600);
        		echo << <eod<br><title>Disconnected</title>
        
         **Disconnected.** 
        
        EOD;
        		captiveportal_disconnect_client($logoutcookie);
        	}
        	else {
        	captiveportal_logportalauth('failed, missing cookie: reauth',$clientmac,$clientip,"LOGOUT");
        	portal_reply_page($redirurl, "login",null,$clientmac,$clientip);
        	}
        }</eod<br>

          As lsesne proposes, I have it working with cookies now.
          No more IP and MAC posting.

          Note: If portal visitor doesn't like cookies (read: he won't be doing much on the Internet) the discussed  logging method won't work.

          edit: lol: I was just posting the above when lsesne posted.
          I created and destroyed the cookie in the same places !!

          I destroyed like this:

                Sorry.

                …. I've updated to the latest pfSense without any 'copies' of the modified files mentioned above.

                :(

                  Here are my modifications that work with cookies:

                  Please note : I use the https version of the captive portal with a valid (startssl.com certificat) (I don't know if this is important).
                  Right now, (January 2015) this setup works on one of my pfSense installations (an hotel).
                  I'm using a nearly clean, original "2.1.5-RELEASE (amd64) built on Mon Aug 25 07:44:45 EDT 2014".

                  edit: these pastebin.org files are locked 'forever' - keep in mind that used to work with 2.1.5 - They might need some re-coding for 2.2.

                  File: /usr/local/captiveportal/index.php : http://pastebin.com/scYuKTyw - index.php - compare and modify last ~ 15 lines
                  Basically, this parted gets inserted:

                  } else if ((isset($_COOKIE['cookie_portal']) && already_connected($_COOKIE['cookie_portal'])))
                          /* if we have a valid session, display already connected page - offer logout */
                          portal_reply_page($redirurl, "already_connected",null,$clientmac,$clientip);
                  

                  File /etc/inc/captiveportal.php :

                  1. Replace the entire function portal_reply_page(…) with this one : http://pastebin.com/piamkhNB

                  2. Just above this new function portal_reply_page(...), add this new function already_connected(…) : http://pastebin.com/CFatytZ9

                  3. Replace the entire function portal_allow(…) with this one : http://pastebin.com/jDHVaNwf (actually, I just added nearly at the bottom one line:

                  	setcookie("cookie_portal", $sessionid);	
                  

                  And:
                  Upload these two files with the FileManager available in the Captive Portal:
                  style.css - http://pastebin.com/MqwEcxVP (this file will be called and used as captiveportal-style.css when uploaded)
                  xxxxxxx-already-connected.html  - http://pastebin.com/PUyQvAuv (this file will be called and used as "captiveportal-xxxxxxx-already-connected.html" when uploaded)

                  You probably have to change the first part of the last file name = "xxxxxxx" in xxxxxxx-already-connected.html
                  Edit your instance (zone) of your captive portal. You will find the wanted parted in the URL:
                  Example, mine is showing this:
                  http://192.168.1.1/services_captiveportal.php?zone=xxxxxxx
                  (Note: my first and unique Captive portal zone is being called "ZONE1" - that's NOT the part we wanted)

                  Btw: @lsense, if you are there:

                  • host override in dns forwarder :    logout.me -> 1.1.1.1

                  Ok, done.

                  • modify capture of 1.1.1.1 in ipfw : it gets always redirected, even if authenticated

                  Could you detail this please ? What is de ipfw rule ? Injected where ?

                  No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.

                    So i cant get this to work. I do get a cookie on the devices but i do not get redirected to the logout page.

                    My index.php looks like this:

                    } else if ($_POST['accept'] && $clientip && $cpcfg['auth_method'] == "none") {
                            captiveportal_logportalauth("unauthenticated",$clientmac,$clientip,"ACCEPT");
                            portal_allow($clientip, $clientmac, "unauthenticated");

                    } else if (already_connected($clientip, $clientmac)) {
                            /* display already connected page - offer logout */
                            portal_reply_page($redirurl, "already_connected",null,$clientmac,$clientip);

                    } else
                            /* display captive portal page */
                            portal_reply_page($redirurl, "login",null,$clientmac,$clientip);

                    ob_flush();

                    ?>

                    Any ideas?

                      I detailed this index.php - by putting the whole file on pastbin.com

                      File: /usr/local/captiveportal/index.php : http://pastebin.com/scYuKTyw - index.php

                      Just replace the one you have right now.

                      Be careful : 2.1.5 only !!
                      edit have it also working on 2.2 now.

                        Thanks for your reply. I see that I missed the part for checking for a cookie (my php skills are kinda low).

                        I'll try this tommorow on a 2.1.5 box.

                        If I may ask you another question: where do you put your " cookie destroy" code.

                          ….
                          If I may ask you another question: where do you put your " cookie destroy" code.

                          I don't  :) (I stopped doing so).

                          If you want to destroy it, have a look at the index.php
                          Look for this line:

                          captiveportal_disconnect_client($_POST['logout_id']);
                          

                          $_POST['logout_id']

                          will be the $session_id.
                          Just before that line, if you like, you can destroy your cookie. edit: wrong ! had to put that code higher up - before the 'logged-out-windows' is being send - see line 121-124 in index.php : http://pastebin.com/scYuKTyw
                          Or do what lsense proposed here : https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=77143.msg422179#msg422179

                          But, what happens if you don't ?
                          Ones disconnected, the session Id will be 'non-existent' (its a big random number).
                          So, it can't be reused to re-disconnect, neither disconnect some one else (remember: you have to have the same IP and same sessions Id to interact with a session from some one else).
                          Anyway, to access the disconnect function, you have to have a valid session first.

                          As said before: I use a https portal login page - with a real certificate (a valid one, guaranteed by StartSSL) - so sniffing the initial  login from some one else isn't an easy thing to do.

                          Important : if you want to debug this kind of stuff, do not use 'echo' all over the place, use this function:

                          captiveportal_logportalauth($text1,$text2,$text3, $text4);
                          

                          Have a loot at http://pastebin.com/jDHVaNwf to see examples how t use it.

                          Just drop some captiveportal_logportalauth($text1,$text2,$text3, $text4); on strategic places to see what is getting reached when.

                          No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.

                              I'll give it a try to 'backport' all this to pfSense 2.2 Release.

                                  Yep. You're right. Works for me on 2.2 now.
                                  I'll have to do some checking the next severals days - have 'verbose portal logging' activate to see how it goes.

                                    Hi there,

                                    I am not able to get it working after days effort. I am not using https CP.

                                    Can anyone please write a step by step guide to make this working.

                                    Thanks

                                    Regards

                                    amitaussie

                                      I never tried it without https login.

                                      Like: "why do it the easy way, if the difficult way is available ?"  :)
                                      https need valid signed certificates by a know authority, I just followed "PFsense 2.1 MultiCP and https with Windows Radius Guide" (in this forum) and …. it worked - costs me some time and zero € or $ **.

                                      I'll test the plain http tomorrow morning (can't test my portal on distance  >:( )

                                      **) but you need to have a valid, existing domain name on the internet, which, of course, costs some € or $ a year ......

                                      Btw: Here are my portal stats (all stats are pfSense internals) http://www.test-domaine.fr/munin/brit-hotel-fumel.net/pfsense.brit-hotel-fumel.net/index.html#portalusers

                                            Think im gonna try the less secure IP/MAC solution.

                                            I use it in a enviroment with BYOD en slot of Androids/IPhone dont lauch there browser but login via the OS. So the cookie is not stored.
