Hi,

I am making some experiences with captive portal.

I dont know really why, but the basic functions are working now fine -  
especially the disconnection (in my case from WAN/Internet)

Is it possible, that redirected to the login-page for  
Internet-Registration, a Voucher is activated even if the password is  
wrong?

The only indication of this seems me, that there is no redirection  
after authentication/activation but the voucher is active and access  
is open!??

I also have problems to make working the  
authentication/activation-redirection with firefox 3.014 under  
Kubuntu. actually I have to authenticate/activate with Konqueror to  
continue after with Firefox also. This problem persists even with  
http-login. With https I may have to sign my certificates - yes some  
work and knowledge to achieve...

Is it possible or recommended to use the auto-generated keys of m0n0  
for https-admin-login also for captive-portal login - means just  
transferring it with copy and paste???

If yes, why https-login with firefox to the router direkt works since  
the http/s-login/redirection to CAP under Firefox not!??

Thanks a lot for Your replies
