[Chilli] Using CoovaChilli without RADIUS

[Xabier Oneca -- xOneca]

I've been crawling throughout the source code and I found out.

Summarizing, this is what I have done:

In the config file add:

    localusers '/usr/local/etc/chilli/local.users'
    # There's no RADIUS in localhost, but must provide one.
    radiusserver1 '127.0.0.1'

And create the local.users file with users. In my case only needed one:

    myuser:mypass

I don't know why yesterday didn't work, maybe was browser's cache in
action...

Thanks you David for all responses! You answer very quickly!!
