I have a router that does captive portal and if you close the window you can go to http://unit_ip/logout.cgi and it kills the authentication.

I only know, that you can´t manage the Router from another Ip-adress if there is someone logged in already from somewhere else. I haven´t checked out, what happens, if I try to reconnect from the same browser and machine after logging out. I have m0n0walls now everywhere, so it´s hard for me to test now, but next time I get my hands on a netgear I´ll do a test. Maybe someone else who reads this could test it. kind regards, Holger Bauer -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Manuel Kasper [mailto:mk at neon1 dot net] Gesendet: Freitag, 10.

You can't really "logout" with HTTP authentication; you'd have to convince your browser to forget the login credentials that you entered, so it's a browser issue. There's no "session" on m0n0wall that could be killed; the credentials are sent with each request. We could return a 401 response, as this makes some browsers clear the cached credentials, but AFAIR this isn't necessarily true. - Manuel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: m0n0wall dash unsubscribe at lists dot m0n0 dot ch For additional commands, e-mail: m0n0wall dash help at lists dot m0n0 dot ch ____________ Virus checked by G DATA AntiVirusKit Version: AVK 15.0.1458 from 10.12.2004 Virus news: www.antiviruslab.com ____________ Virus checked by G DATA AntiVirusKit --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: m0n0wall dash unsubscribe at lists dot m0n0 dot ch For additional commands, e-mail: m0n0wall dash help at lists dot m0n0 dot ch |
