WiCap-PHP

WiCap-PHP is a very simple captive portal for OpenBSD (tested on 3.5 and 3.7). Currently it is maintained by CalebPhillips.

Note: This project, while totally stable and usable, is no longer being maintained. My access point no longer runs OpenBSD, and hence, I don't have an itch to scratch (or a platform on which to develop). If you want to take over development of this project, let me know. (CalebPhillips)

Currently it is maintained by CalebPhillips, although he may get busy and

abandon it like so many other projects. This page will earn content as it 

seems prudent, good to create it at any rate.

-Note: ''delta'' introduces alot of new code, as such, it is less stable than previous versions. Please

let me know if you discover any problems. Update 2005-10-24: I didn't lie, there was at least one serious bug, which

has been squashed and will be fixed in the next release. I will do another release as soon as I have time (or if

someone pokes me via email) - CalebPhillips.

'''Project Forks''':



BenjaminJencks rewrote the perl part of WiCap-PHP (version beta) in python, and made some cool improvements. Get his

version here:



 * http://bjencks.net/captive/captive-0.1.tar.gz



Although, his improvements made the ''beta'' version much better, ''delta'' incorporates his changes, with one exception, ''delta'' is written in C and PHP, no Python. My rationale behind this is that Python is not installed with OpenBSD 3.7 by default, and adding it takes significant space, since my Node is using a 256 MB Compact-Flash card for storage, this savings is needed. If you have Python installed, you may want to check out his fork.
