Topic: captive portal and internal authentication and

Hi,

I'm looking for recommendations  or pointers to achieve the following
- captive portal with internal authentication
- simple web page for our receptionist to create accounts & generate passwords when demanded by visitors
- self expiring accounts, like one / three / seven days, the receptionist can decide according to visitors need
- ability to create even longer accounts when demanded by visitors, eg 30 days.

Our current, propietary system, does all this, but it is aged and I'm afraid it'll break any time soon. :-(
I do not see visitors self-registering as an option, nor external authentication systems. The amount of visitors weekly is low, say 1 to 5, so building complex system is an overkill.

I hope that somebody does have an idea and shares it.

Let me just say that I've already checked coova and wifidog.

Edit: Maybe I'm asking way too simple questoin, but I'm totally new with open-wrt and I'm grateful of any pointers to the right direction.
