Description

I'd like to let users authenticate past the captive portal by registering or logging into a Drupal site hosted on a remote server.

Seems not too far off.

Let me know how I can help.

For hotspot authentication to work, the credentials used to login must be in the RADIUS server. The Drupal module now has the ability to use a single pre-configured username and password to log people in. This single login could be used where users must first login to Drupal. It should be just a matter of required a user login before going to the auto-login module page.

However, I'm also working on a commercial RADIUS server where actual Drupal users can be provisioned into the RADIUS platform via the Drupal site.
