It is supposed to be run on Redhat.Here's an article on it.<a class="user" href="http://www.wi-fiplanet.com/tutorials/article.php/3111111">http://www.wi-fiplanet.com/tutorials/article.php/3111111</a>

NoCat is pretty tight too. With our Less, we have a redirect add based market thats easily customizable for venues.Although I like to use Hyper firmware on my WRT54g's and hit 1/2 mile with a small 7db gain antenna. You know, to cross those crappy paid Starbucks. ;)

myWIFIzone Captive Portal services do the same thing and work with Windows 2K/XP. Zero up-front investment if you already have a WIFI network.
