[isf-wifidog] regarding an ubuntu gateway

[Reggie Griffin]

On my system, the wifidog.conf is located here:

/usr/local/etc/wifidog.conf

In this file, there is an option:

GatewayInterface

You might want to change this to whatever you virtualbox interface is and restart the service.

Also, try changing the error reporting set by Wifidog.

This was set in a lot of the PHP files under /var/www/wifidog-auth/
error_reporting(E_ALL);

We changed it to:

error_reporting(E_ALL ^E_NOTICE);
