I always like additional logging as long as it's handled through the
standard SYSLOG facility.  This provides for a way to get the logs onto
another server's hard drive rather than depending on local storage.

Does the patch include logging for the non-Radius captive portal click 
through case also?

That would be a really handy addition if its not already part of this.

FWIW, I run several machines configured as 'open click through' captive 
portals for community wireless networks and it would be great to get a 
log for what people/MAC addresses have clicked through and since timed 
out of the captive portal window (and hence don't show up as current 
active portal users).

thx! michael
