On my way home....

Michigan was great to me. It's funny meeting people that you only know from the internet world, it's like meeting a friend for the first time.

Everything went great! There was two other vendors at the conference, and i am pretty sure we killed them :) At least half of the attendees really seemed interested in what Public IP has to offer, the other half i think were just there for the day-off ;)

Anyway - i'm tired, and once again posting something only because i needed to pay for Internet access from Detroit International. I'll post some more geeky stuff next week.

On my way to Flint Michigan

I am sitting at Philadelphia International waiting for my flight to Detroit. I had to pay Wayport $7.95 for 24 hours access so i figured I'll try to get my money's worth and post to the blog ;) You would think that paying for access would give you access to all or most ports.... not so with Wayport. But i use HotSpotVPN2 so all is well :)

I am headed to the WiFi thing for Libraries with a bag full of ZoneCDs. I thought for sure that 60 CD's in a box would have looked like a bomb, but i guess not. I was all ready to hit the floor, or get harassed by airport security. So far so good, other then paying for internet access

Authserver Code Release

I am preparing to release the source code used on the Premium authservers. I have a couple more changes to make in the code to fix a couple little bugs, and add a couple improvements. Once I complete this I will tar the source and install it on another server so I can get it ready for pre-release. There is one major problem. It has no Admin interface, only the captive portal. As I have always said, Zone Control will not be released, but the actual authentication code will be.

If anybody wants to manage the source code release please email me. I'll hand you the source code I have, and setup you to manage the publicip.org domain. Your responsibility would be to see that an Admin interface is developed, and also setting-up and maintaining the publicip.org domain. Of course, you will be working closely with me in the beginning, but after you're ready you'll be free to do as you wish.

You should be familiar with PHP5, MySQL, html form handling/UI design, and basic web design. Email scott at publicip dot net if you are interested in helping.
