Hi all, don't know if this is the right list for such problems, but after all a cybercafe is also an isp, so here it is:
I'm in search of a management software for a cybercafe. The firewall will be debian, the stations will multiboot win/lin. I'd like to be able to manage who can login on which machine, until when, and if internet connectivity is granted. So clients pay, then they are given a machine number and a username/password pair which is valid on that machine until the time expires. Idem for internet connectivity for that machine. Client <-> machine mapping is a plus but not a requirement (but I think it's easier to tell which machine can connect through the fw than which client). The most basic setup would be management of the firewall rules in a clean interface, time management being done by hand. The system has to be usable by a complete non techie, so no way to do it with a real firewall management program. Well, I think you get the idea of what I'd like. It does not have to be a complete killer solution (although that would be best :-), but it has to tackle the job and be simple to use. Does it exist in the free world? Note that if it exists but not in debian, I would be willing to package it. Thanks, -- Rémi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
