Due to the poor documentation, it is pretty hard figure out how to make work coova chilli controller. I don't understand some variables in the config file. I would like to address the user to a login page located to an external server but I don't understand this variables and how to use them.

HS_UAMSERVER

HS_UAMFORMAT

HS_UAMHOMEPAGE

HS_UAMSERVICE

HS_UAMSERVER should be the variable which point to the address so should be an IP address but I don't know how to use correctly the above remaining variables. Which is the difference between the second and third variable? and what is HS_UAMSERVICE? The config file suggests to read this link http://www.coova.org/CoovaChilli/UAMService but it is down

All you really need is HS_UAMFORMAT

sjbeskur commented 9 years ago

We typically just use HS_UAMSERVER as once upon a time HS_UAMFORMAT had issues if UAMSERVER was not specified. example:

HS_UAMSERVER=mydomain.com

HS_UAMFORMAT=https://\$HS_UAMSERVER

Also be sure to set your set your radius servers, secrets , nasid's etc.
