splash page local #269

Open keulu opened 8 years ago

keulu commented 8 years ago

Hi guys,

I'have a problem since a couple of days, i would to know if it is possible to use the splash page in local from my router.

I didn't compiled coova with miniportal, so i don't have the coova web server, i use monkey web server.

so my question is : Can coova resolve and allow access to something like that "www.splash.local/index.php" which is not DNS resolvable ? And how can i do that.

I tried a lot of things, no one worked :(

thanks for your answers :)

Hey @keulu ,

What about using dnsmak to have a local dns resolution ?

Or you could use the hosts file too ...

keulu commented 8 years ago

well, i tried to use the hosts to point "www.splash.local" to 127.0.0.1, but it didn't work. i also opened it in uamallowed or uamdomain, no one work i don't tried dnsmasq. but is that the only way ?

If you're using dnsmask, you need to tell in coova conf to use its own dns as first dns server, thus it can resolve your local domain from coova clients.

ok thx @irongomme i will try that next week ;)

Et sinon il n'est pas plus simple de recompiler Coova avec l'option miniportal ? Ou alors de regarder une config similaire dans un certain aquarium ?
