(debian-devel Cc'd since this ITP was never reviewed there) * Package name : nocatauth Version : 0.82 Upstream Author : Rob Flickenger <rob@nocat.net> * URL : http://nocat.net/download/NoCatAuth/ * License : GPL v2 Description : captive portal system NoCatSplash is an open public network gateway daemon. It performs as a captive portal, also called an "open" or "active" portal. When run on a gateway or router on a network, NoCatSplash causes all web requests to be redirected to a "splash page," where users must log in or (for example) agree to a usage policy. . The gateway daemon uses ipchains or iptables to set firewall rules to control the flow of traffic, based on IP and MAC addresses. NoCatAuth supports authentication from 'passwd'-style plain text files and from various forms of databases. The upstream author of this software has been contacted; I am waiting for a reply before beginning serious packaging work. The 0.82 release had some stability issues. The final package will likely be either patched, built from nightly snapshots, or after the next stable revision is released. - Keegan
