hi vinay you understood my problem weare on the same page. I am using FC5
and I edited the etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and modified listen port to
8080.. I also change the wifidog.conf located inside the linksys router to
look for <public IP>:8080 instead of
<private IP>80

I still get

 Info

   - Version: 1.1.3_beta2
   - Node ID: Wifidog


Menu

   - WiFiDog Status <http://www.google.com/wifidog/status>

I check the log on the router running wifidog an says it cannot find
authentication server
++++++++++++++++++++
Oct 14 16:55:01 (none) user.info : [3][Sat Oct 14 16:55:01 2006][1175](
centralserver.c:173) Failed to connect to any of the auth servers
++++++++++++++++++
This may very well be because the wireless wifdog router is located inside
the LAN  trying to direct the data traffic to go outside the LAN< To get
authenticated> but cannot go outside the LAN before getting authenticated so
it catch 22(
The only reason wifidog is inside the LAN because i do not have access to
another location where I can put the wifidog on another LAN which outside
the LAN of the authentication server

I am not sure If I am making sense here. I hope you understand.

regards

Raj
