[HOWTO] Captive portal + FreeRADIUS + local MySQL user friendly single step
-
@Alexandre4sol: I think dhipo on this thread did have the same error. Maybe you should talk to him to see how he managed to solve this. As for me I'll have to make some tests because I never encountered that problem.

Hi had issues with the one downloaded from git.
https://codeload.github.com/deajan/pfSense-cp-auth-onestep/zip/masterThe old version worked fine but the new one didn't.

@guterkerl That's why releases exist on github, in order to not pick up a project at a random moment in the dev process. You should take release v0.46 on github which is latest and functionnal.

oh ok thanks deajan

@deajan, I followed your instruction on PFS2.3.3 and it worked like a champ. I tried to customize to my enviroment and was wondering on I would change the font size of "Hotel WiFi"?

@probie Late reply, sorry. You can mod the text size directly in the css of ozy-captive.php. Find the line with```

@krotin google is your friend http://www.pastbedti.me/2008/11/resetrecover-mysql-root-password-in-freebsd/
-
Thank you, I know google is my friend but i'm not trusting every source granted i'm new to freebsd.
At least I know I can safely follow those instructions with your recommendations.
Thank you for your kindness Sir.
Krotin.

Hello. Is your work runnig both 32bit and 64bit platforms? Coz i noticed that some installation commands end with "amd64". So it means that installation package is for 64bit platform? When i wanna use 32bit platform do i have to use 32bit installion package?

Hi, I try to instal but when i try to instal mysql56-server, or mysql57-server go in conflict with the library libevent2-2.0.22_1 and libevent-2.1.8 in 64 bit version.
To no one else does the same?
-
I resolved the situation by using the development version 2.3.4-DEVELOPMENT (amd64), that does'nt have library conflict.
Also I have a problem with freeradius version 1.7.8 that don't allow to input into the interface the ip 127.0.0.1 so after installing freeradius I modificate the file /usr/local/pkg/freeradius.inc at line 4384 from
if (!is_ipaddr_configured($post['varinterfaceip'])) {
to
if (!is_ipaddr_configured($post['varinterfaceip']) && $post['varinterfaceip'] != "127.0.0.1") {
I found the information in tha post https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=127875.0
the last problem with freeradius version 1.7.8 is that need in the EAP section on "certificates for tls" all the voice with a hit
in the first you need to create a CA certificate, in the second a revacation list for the certificate and in the thir a ssl server certificate

Thanks for sharing. I have to setup a new pfSense test platform these days because of some changes I recently made on the mysql code. I'll update the howto then.

You have not updated this documentation page at this time

I'm aware of that :) Still have to redo the whole howto on a recent pfSense build in order to rewrite it properly and address new issues, but as always, time is a b****, and I was more eager to rewrite the portal itself for security reasons than the manual.

Hi deajan, thanks a lot for this project.
Is it possible to use this Captive Portal for self registration on a unencrypted WLAN SSID with username and password, and use these credentials to authenticate on a encrypted WPA2 Enterprise SSID (with PEAP authentification or something like that)? -

I'm not really sure what's your usecase here, but if I understand right, you want users to self sign in on a first wireless network, then have them connect on the secured wireless network with the credentials they created earlier.
You would have to modify the code of the captive portal to add a password option (let's say instead of the room number or so).
Then you'd need to add the pfSense FreeRADIUS server to your WPA2 setup.
Could you elaborate a bit please ? -

I've got three LANCOM L-322agn Access Points, one LANCOM WLC-4006+ Controller and a pfSense Setup. This will be used for a public WLAN in a small industrial area. The idea is to provide these two SSIDs with the access points at the same time. I do not want to use a "normal" WPA with pre shared key to provide more security when using the WLAN without VPN. I Think 802.1x/EAP with MSCHAPv2 or somethink like that would be better. What would be the best way to do that with your Captive portal solution? My PHP and JavaScript knowledge is unfortunately limited :-\ -
Is there any way with this setup to limit the amount of data one user can use at one time? say i want user bob to only have a max download limit of 1 GB for the duration of his time at the hotel?
-
Especially for Bob ? or All Bobs ? :)
