I would be grateful for your mod_rewrite rules, but this will be a last resort. AFAIK there are implementations of a captive portal in M0n0wall and pfSense. I've also seen howtos like https://www.unixmen.com/freebsd-10-1-x64-wifi-captive-portal/ But if I can, I'd try a pure WiFi solution first, of course if it exists. -- Victor Sudakov, VAS4-RIPE, VAS47-RIPN AS43859 _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
