Support got back with me.  One line from the above that worked with 6.1.4 seems to break 7.  The following form code works in v 7.0.0: <form name="login2" id="login_form2" method="post">   <input type='hidden' name="escapeUser" value="bar">   <input type='hidden' name='user' value='portaluser'>   <input type='hidden' name='passwd' value='password'>   <div class="buttonWrapper">   <input class="buttonFixed" type="submit" id="submit" name="ok" value="Login" onClick="document.getElementById('taLogin').innerHTML = '';">   </div> </form> We found that this works as well with 6.1.4, so we're moving to this as our standard captive portal config. ...

If you are using 6.1.X (and probably some older versions), there is a way.  This doesn't work under 7 at this time, though.  (I was here looking for help with 7) If you export the captive portal comfort page, then edit it, you'll find a tag called <pan_form/>. Replace that tag with this: <form name="login2" id="login_form2" method="post">   <input type='hidden' name="inputStr" value="foo">   <input type='hidden' name="escapeUser" value="bar">   <input type='hidden' name='user' value='portaluser'>   <input type='hidden' name='passwd' value='password'>   <div class="buttonWrapper">   <input class="buttonFixed" type="submit" id="submit" name="ok" value="Login" onClick="document.getElementById('taLogin').innerHTML = '';">   </div> </form> Import the resulting form, and you should be good to go, aside from customizing the page to look the way you want, and (of course) you will need a local user named "portaluser" with the password "password". I'm not certain if all the inputs need to be used, but do know that it works like this. ... View more
