Hi at all, I'm a little bit confused about freeradius..
which is the different between django-freeradius and  opewisp-radius?

although it is still at alpha release it is possible to use it?
my goal is to create a captive portal with social authentication (with for example coova)
It's already possible now?

I tried to install... I get this error:

url(r'^', include('django_freeradius.urls',namespace='freeradius')),
NameError: name 'include' is not defined

I checked also on git, django_freeradius.urls not exist... It's normal?

Which repository are you using, django-freeradius or openwisp-radius? 
Are you trying to install for development? 
What steps are you following?

The difference between django-freeradius and openwisp-radius is that openwisp-radius supports multitenancy of organizations.

although it is still at alpha release it is possible to use it?

It's alpha version, hopefully everything will workout, otherwise you'll help us find a bug! :P



Best,

I'm using django-freeradius. I tried in many ways:
- Integrating in my openwisp VM with pypi
- Integrating in my openwisp VM with pip install tarball/git
- in a new ubuntu VM with a empty django project via pypi
- in a new ubuntu VM with a empty django project via tarball/git

In every possibility I follow this paragraph "Setup (integrate in an existing django project)"

Hello,
Plese import include using
`from django.conf.urls import include`
And try again.
I'm already working on a configurable captive portal for openwisp-radius. It has login, signup, social login, password-reset and change feataures and it also support multi-language. You can test it and check if it works for you.

Regards,
Vivek Chand

Intersting!! So the step should I follow are:
- Install Openwisp Controller (already do)
- Install openwisp-radius
- install openwisp-wifi-login-pages (in the same VM or separated is better?)
- install freeradius3 (where? followinng django-freeradius docs only?)
- install coova on my openwrt APs

Right?
