Comment 2 for bug 1028578

Salut André,

je ne sais pas comment intégrer le client wifidog à une image open wrt ou
dd wrt.

par contre, je sais comment l'intégrer à AirOs
http://dev.wifidog.org/wiki/doc/install/airos

Il y a quelques inexactitudes dans la doc (du moins si tu utilises un ordi
sur ubuntu) :

- ne pas utiliser /dev : l éspace sera insufisant pour faire la
compilation. Il vaut mieux se créer un répertoire dans /home et partir de
là (exemple : /home/ISF)

- pour créer les liens symboliques, ne pas mettre de tilde ~
ex : remplacer ln -s ~/home/ISF/wifidog/airos/wifidog/
par ln -s /home/ISF/wifidog/airos/wifidog/

- Si jamais tu le fais sur une machine virtuelle ubuntu, il y a des
dépendances à installer :
apt-get install libncurses5-dev
apt-get install ncurses-term
apt-get install zlib1g-dev
apt-get install gawk
apt-get install bison
apt-get install flex
apt-get install autoconf
apt-get install subversion
apt-get install patch

- avant de faire cette commande
make world V=99
il faut se trouver dans le repertoire /openwrt

Aussi, la doc parle de faire des wget pour récupérer des archives, mais
avec moi ça ne marchait jamais, fichier corrumpu etc. le mieux c'est de le
télécharger et le mettre à la main dans le répertoire pour le "dézipper"

La semaine prochaine, je devrais avoir du temps à consacrer à vérifier ton
serveur et te faire une image si tu n'a pas réussi

C'est un peu compliqué à faire avec AirOS, car on ne peut pas modifier le
fichier wifidog.conf après coup, il faut recompiler... C'est pour cela que
faire ses premiers tests avec un wrt54g/L est intéressant.
Mais tu sembles être *extrêmement* motivé alors amuses toi :)
