Please excuse the absurd cross-posting, but I wanted to make sure that
everyone that might be interested in such a project heard about
it. NoCatSplash, a multi-threaded captive portal written in C, has reached
a more-or-less beta stage prior to its initial release.
- From the README:
"NoCatSplash is a Open Public Network Gateway Daemon. It performs as a
[captive/open/active] portal. When run on a gateway/router on a network,
all web requests are redirected until the client clicks "I Accept" to an
AUP. The gateway daemon then changes the firewall rules on the gateway to
pass traffic for that client (based on IP address and MAC address).
"NoCatSplash is the successor to NoCatAuth, which was written in Perl.
NoCatSplash is written in multi-threaded ANSI C in order to be smaller
and work better on embedded style devices."
You can get it from:
http://nocat.net/download/NoCatSplash/
Instructions for building NoCatSplash with uClibc are included in the
distribution in the README.uClibc file. A recent build against uClibc
yielded an executable that was only 120k in size, and depended on nothing
beyond libc.so and libpthread.so. As you can see, it doesn't require perl,
and hence should be slim enough to run on OpenAP, LEAF distros, and other
embedded-style Linux platforms.
Currently, only "open mode" and iptables are supported. Authenticating
modes are slated to be added shortly, as well as support for OpenBSD and
FreeBSD.
We could really use your help beta-testing this. Please send me bug
reports personally, as our Request Tracker install is still incomplete.
I will refrain from cross-posting in the future, so if you're interested
in further development, please join the NoCat development list by
e-mailing [EMAIL PROTECTED] If there's enough interest, we
might start a separate list devoted exclusively to NoCatSplash, and we
will announce that on the NoCat Dev list when it happens.
