(RADIATOR) Tutorial and support for ChilliSpot captive portal

[Mike McCauley]

Hello all,

We have been testing Radiator successfully with ChilliSpot.

ChilliSpot (http://www.chillispot.org) is a captive portal for wireless 
networks. It authenticates wireless users against a Radius server before 
granting access to the internet. It is available under GPL for Unix and 
Linux.

We have developed a lengthy tutorial and sample configuration files showing 
how to install and configure ChilliSpot, Radiator and
RAdmin to provide a complete, locally administered captive portal wireless 
hotspot solution, including prepaid time for users, user statistics,
monitoring etc. 

This solution can be extended to provide a country-wide network of hotspots, 
all managed from a central Radiator and RAdmin for user management. RadSec 
allows the hotspot Radiators to communicate securely to the central Radiator 
for secure reliable authentication services to the hotspots.

The tutorial etc is in the latest Radiator patch set and will be included in 
the next release.

Cheers.
