Eden/Matt/Chris/Michael/Bob, If you haven't done so already, please subscribe to this mailing list: http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/meshbox-radius Also please E-mail me your current sourceforge screen name/login, so I can add you to the source forge developer's site. We're trying to create a Global authentication server database. This is a BIG task. These are the goals: We're trying to create a global authentication server. So users have one login, and one password, and they can roam freely between wireless MeshBox communities. We'd like the User database to be manageable using our current web-based control panel (php-based). That way we can assign permissions to certain users, and they can add/edit/manage user accounts in their local area. 1) We currently have a user database 2) We'd like to use FreeRADIUS (for user authentication), and somehow tie this to our current user database. 3) We'd like to use NoCat (for wireless authentication) 4) We need to add a Lat/Long field to the current database (need some type of lat/long conversion program to convert an address to lat/long). The mapping server will use this lat/long field for the Mapping of MeshBox nodes. 5) We need to add address (and country code) information to the current user database (and somehow convert the street address to a lat/long). 6) We need to update the web-based control panel pages with the additional fields (address, country code, phone number, etc.) for easy web-based administration. Any ideas on how we can do all this? Where shall we begin? Do you want to see what we currently have in place first? <Looking around the room for ideas> Mark -----Original Message----- From: Eden Akhavi [mailto:ede...@lt...] Sent: Friday, February 28, 2003 5:02 PM To: 'Mark Malewski' Subject: RE: Need help with creating a database Hi Mark, What do you need?
