It uses the Linux iptables firewall to do the redirect. The first rule in the firewall essentially says "redirect all traffic to http://authenticationserver:port/". After the user was authenticated, a new iptables rule will be inserted on top that lets the traffic of this user pass through. You can study the Perl script that manipulates the firewall settings, it is called "reinst_rules". Fabian |

Hello List I just want to know where is the initial firewall rule in SAB Gateway that causes the redirection to the SAB Gateway ? Simply put where the redirection happens in the code ?

Note that any URL other than https://<my-ip>/nwadmin https://<my-ip>/mrtg will cause the browser to be redirected login portal, which is served from another host, SAB Server. I remember seeing the looping behaviour as well, but can't remember exactly which configuration error caused that to happen. What is the URL you see flashing on the browser when it loops? > My second problem is where to maintain the aaa server - is it also the > loop problem - can i log into radius with admin and maintain everything? SAB Gateway is intended to be hooked against a SAB Server, that provides both the portal and radius service for the gateway. The SAB Server has graphical UI for administering gateways, service locations and subsrcibers etc. > Thank you very much for any help - and most importent: Is there any > documentation for the software package? Documents about SAB gateway and its use can be found by registering at our opensource web site, http://extra.wificom.com/opensource Best regards, Veli-Matti Riepula |

Dear List I know SAB-Gateway provide the functions below - AAA - Networking - Management I would like to ask if any one know about a free (or GNU licensed) software like SAB Server with following functions - Subscribers management - Self care Portal (Web pages) - Service creation and management - etc. I'm looking forward to hearing from List.

I guess this is the password for the admin web site you are wondering about? It's a standard Apache password file. I don't remember the precise details, but an "slocate htaccess" (or was it dlocate?) should find it for you. Fabian |

The gateway is packaged for Red Hat Linux 7.3. I'm afraid you would have to invest a few days work if you wanted to install it on another Linux distro. Fabian |

HI, I installed the wificom sab gateway but somehow no password was set for the admin user (don't ask). Is there a way to manually reset this password?

Correct, at the moment those parameters are not actually used anywhere. The PPTP client feature on SAB Gateway has not yet been implemented. Best regards, Veli-Matti |

Here's a transcript : I'm afraid that the RH7.3 is required, and with the predefined packages installed since the install.sh compares the RPM list of installed RPMs to an static list that comes with SAB gateway. If they don't match, then install fails. You can try to workaround this by disabling the RPM check or making it to compare to the list of RPMs that you have actually installed. Rgs, Veli-Matti |

Hi, Seems that this place is the only one to get some kind of support. I'm about to ask a very basic question that is apparently already answered in the project page. But read it carefully anyway.... I understand this project needs Linux Red Hat 7.3. I believe it is a MINIMUM system requirement. I just installed Linux Red Hat 9 on a machine to test SAB GATEWAY. Could it be the reason why I can't complete the bash build.sh command properly ? Here's a transcript : [root@localhost install]# bash build.sh This is build.sh at localhost.localdomain on mar jui 27 14:40:15 CEST 2004 /bin/rm -f *~ *.bak core /bin/rm -f wificom-ag.spec /bin/rm -f /bin/rm -f wificom-ag-4.2.3.tar.gz wificom-ag-4.2.3-*.rpm /bin/rm -f wificom-ag-conf-4.2.3.tar.gz /bin/rm -rf BUILD /bin/rm -rf wificom-ag-4.2.3 wificom-ag-root /bin/rm -rf wificom-ag-conf-4.2.3 wificom-ag-conf-root /bin/rm -f Makefile config.cache config.log config.status config.h [...] install -c -m 0644 VERSION wificom-ag-4.2.3 tar cvzf wificom-ag-4.2.3.tar.gz wificom-ag-4.2.3 wificom-ag-4.2.3/ wificom-ag-4.2.3/VERSION mkdir -p /root/wlan-gateway/install/BUILD rpm -bb wificom-ag.spec -bb: unknown option make: *** [wificom-ag] Erreur 1 build.sh: building --> wificom-ag <-- RPM FAILED. Exiting... Of course I could downgrade to Red Hat 7.3 (how sad...). But only if I'm told that this is the only way to make it work.I installed pretty much anything that needed to be installed under R.H. 9, but to no avail. If anyone has an idea/solution, I'd be glad to hear from it ! Cheers. R. |

Hi, Sorry for my bad english. In the nwsetup.conf, there is parameters about PPTP VPN : ### PPTP in use ###################### %pptp=on %pptpun=public %pptppw=private Theses parameters appears to be no yet used. There isn't any hook on the template directory that match with these entries. This feature is an old feature disabled for security reason or it's a new one not yet implemented ? Regards.

Hi, If you take the files from CVS, then you have a "running snapshot". also, /var/www/ only contains the files created by MRTG. the Gateway uses different directories under wifinet/ for HTML/CGI files.

Most of the RH-specific files are related to basic networking, such as setting the IP addresses etc. for which the SAB Gateway uses red-hat scripts. Look in the directory /usr/local/wifinet/templates/, there are all the template files which are used when generating new configuration files. In addition to "porting" the template files, the updateconfig.pl and cgi-bin scripts would need to be reviewed to see that they are valid for possibly changed file locations. Additionally, porting to another distribution would require to adapt the install.sh script to omit RH7.3 specific checks. As the installation handles RPMs the target host obviously needs to be able to handle RPMs (IIRC, Debian uses it's own package management tools). Overall, the tasks cumulate to quite a bit of change work, so probably we're talking of few days of effort rather than few hours. Rgs, Veli-Matti |

The RPMs in the previous release had been corrupted by the SourceForge CVS. This release should install cleanly now. You can download the release from the SourceForge site: https://sourceforge.net/projects/wlan-gateway/ |

Hello, We have released SAB Gateway 4.2 on SourceForge. Release 4.2 has two major changes: * All parameters are expected to be URL encoded. All scripts try to quote and escape special characters properly when they are passed through the shell. * We implemented the SAB Generic API. The old API still exists but has become obsolete.

When the gateway 4.1.0 is upgraded to 4.1.2 then the sessionfiles and RADIUS records have naming issue. The template %locationcode value is used instead of NASID. Example below: faulty record --> alfa1.10.0.0.53#%locationcode-120.open-request. ok record --> ga0001.10.0.0.52#ws217-104.open-request The parameters locationcode and networkname were renamed to nasid and domainsuffix since 4.1.0. so some files must have left behind or not copied during the upgrade. --- Veli-Matti |

Hi, I just uploaded SAB Gateway 4.1.2. The only change over release 4.1.1 is that the source and binary code distributions are now packaged with the GPL terms. Fabian |
