For the auth server, the "supported" version is svn trunk, barring any 
warnings about massive merges, like the one I issued this week.

For the gateway, it's whatever version was last released (the packages on 
sourceforge).

It's just a matter of writing the appropriate authencator module for the auth 
server.  You could also use the existing Radius authenticator with an 
appropriate radius back end.

You probably want to read

Please note also that WiFiDog has a heavy focus on mobile users.  In a static 
WISP model (connection home consumers, not hotspots), you may want to 
consider a non captive-portal based solution.
