Major todo's


I have been taking-it-easy for about a month... watching and taking notes
on what you guys are doing or wanting to do.

Here's the "todo" list for the next ZoneCD release...


1). ZoneCD Web UI with:

  • Password Protection

  • End-User session ID with session start stop times (accounting)

  • Timed sessions (1 hour, 2 hours, etc..)

  • Persistent MAC Blocking/Deny

  • Interface to modify and save NoCat Configuration (floppy required)



2). Zone User Class - See the list of other posts....


3). Verify email of registered user - [optional] The end-user
will have a predefined amount of time to access their registered email account
and validate their email address before getting blocked.


4). "Station Identification" or "Virtual
Placemat" -
[optional] An option to replace the login popup
window with a redirect to a web page. The web page will be setup to contain
your location details and/or advertising with a "Continue" button
to send the user where they were going....


5). Headlesss Helper - [optional] A way to confirm a succesfull startup for systems that are not using any input/output devices like a monitor, keyboard, or mouse. Might just be a beep, or it could be an email alert with boot log.


6). Eth0 Static IP - You will be able to use a file(static.conf) on the floppy to assign a static IP to Eth0. The ZoneCD will read this file during boot to configure the network parameters.
