hi ppl

thanks phil for reccomendin smoothwall, it works a treat. and i want to
use it at a caravan park in pembrokeshire - www.trefach.co.uk - but i
also want to setup a wlan, but don't seem to find any support for user
management in smoothwall.

basically, as reccommended by computer shopper, i want to use a
puter inbetween the wap and the rest of the lan on the site. is there
any linux distro's like smoothwall that can act as a gateway between
the wap and the lan?

i also wan't to be able to allocate accounts thru the use of wireless
nics in laptops, so that people can access the net on the site. and
possibly things like loggin time online, and maybe scripts that can
automatically allocate account based on things we say to enter from
whatever browser they are usin. maybe usin perl/cgi scripts.

tia
