Troubleshooting Captive Portal Login Issues
If you're having trouble logging in to your captive portal, here are a few tips to help you out. First, make sure that you have the latest version of the captive portal software installed on your server. If you're using an older version of the software, it may not support some of the security features that we've added to their newer versions of the portal. Second, make sure that your login credentials are correct. The username and password that you use to log in to your server should be the same ones that are listed in your active directory users and groups file. If they're not, you'll need to create a new account for yourself and set up your login credentials there. Finally, make sure that your firewall is configured properly so that traffic destined for your captive portal servers can pass through it.
