... but for now, I am mainly interested in a script that can tell when someone connects to the wireless AP. I should be able to handle combining the scripts on my own.
So here is my question:
Quote:
Is there any way for a script to know when a new host associates with the wireless? I would like to combine scripts so that when someone successfully authenticates with my wireless AP, an e-mail is generated.
It seems to me that this script would have to be CRONed to run every x number of minutes, and most likely do some kind of comparison of the log files- as I do not think it is possible to simply run code upon wireless association. Can anyone offer any insight?
I'm trying to see if associations are logged in the syslog but I'm new to the Linux / UNIX commands (and I have the Micro firmware) so I'm really working with a handicap here. Any help is appreciated.
You ought to say what hardware and firmware you're using. If you have a micro build they you can pretty much forget about scripting anything. _________________ Read the forum announcements thoroughly! Be cautious if you're inexperienced.

Here's the info:

Router Model
Linksys WRT54G2 / GS2
Firmware Version
DD-WRT v24-sp2 (07/21/09) micro - build 12533
It seems that Micro is all this router will support. I will be purchasing a new router that can accommodate a different version. I'd like to purchase from Best Buy (have a gift card ). What make / model would you advise that is best dollar for dollar?
I purchased a Cisco / Linksys E2000 and got everything loaded. I am in the process of testing the script with this combo of hardware / firmware. I will update when complete. Wish me luck!
Edit:
It seems to be working after I got the sendmail issues sorted out with my mail host. For some reason it is still not showing the sender's information (blank)- but at least it works.
All of my tests are showing as "Unknown at...". What does it take for them to not be "Unknown"?
