[Chilli] Installation question

Hi,

Normally you copy /etc/chilli defaults to /etc/chilli/config and edit it e.g. to include
HS_WANIF="eth0" # Give interface of default route or omit (=auto).
HS_LANIF="wlan0"      # Your WiFi interface.

There is a *very* brief note http://coova.org/CoovaChilli/Configuration
Looking at the init.d script and the function file it uses may help,
Google should point you to some configuration HOWTOs,
Setting up backends (RADIUS) can be challenging.

Sure.

I'm installing on an Ubuntu server (14. 04) with basic system files,  with RadiusDesk already configured.  I'm at the step of starting CoovaChilli,  and the daemon is looking to bind to eth0 and eth1 (WAN and LAN interface... assuming that eth1 connects to an access point).

There is no eth1.   ifconfig shows eth0 and wlan0 for the network adapters,  along with lo.

I'm asking how/where/what to change so that the daemon accepts wlan0 instead of eth0.

Could you describe a bit more in detail, please?
Coova works fine with wlan0, a standard config for me.

Sure, should be straight-forward:

HS_WANIF="uplink-tun" # Give interface of default route or omit (=auto).
HS_LANIF="wlan0"      # Your WiFi interface.
HS_TUNDEV="wlan0-tun" # Name of the tun dev.
...
