Dog vs. Cat
I am at a crossroad in development. I am researching and testing a new captive portal called WiFiDog http://www.ilesansfil.org/wiki/WiFiDog. All PHP and C. Not Perl, JAVA, PHP and TomCat, Axis, SOAP, crons.... this would greatly simplify my development, and minimize server requirements, as well as open a few doors for porting to the infamous WRT54G.
Aside from still being embryonic, one problem was that the authserver uses Postgresql, but i am converting it to MySQL. I am still in the code picking it apart, looking to see advantages over the exsiting AUTHENTICATION methods used by NoCat and the Control Server (Authentication is a separate part of the control server). Before i go into development of the Control Server Lite version, i need to decide what the future Control Server will actually be. With WiFiDog, i really don't see a need for me to release a lite version of my server... It seems to be exactly what many of you are asking for. Hell, i might just switch over to their server... Just kidding. If your a developer, check it out. Let me know what you think.
