Hotspot SMS Authentication

Heli0s
I enabled SMS Authentication in the Hotspot field, but when I enter my phone number, I get an error that "Sending message failed".

The logs show the following:

hshttpd[24546]: Can't connect to SMS client: Error in the connection: Connection refused

Is there additional software/configuration that I need to do to get SMS authentication working?

    Heli0s, I guess they accidentally activated SMS and it's not ready for production.  That was discussed in the 9.3 beta.  What version are you using?

    Cheers - Bob

    Why must they tease us like that?! [:)]

    Do you know what they're planning for the SMS feature? I noticed that there's an SMS Gateway, but I guess that's not functioning either.

    No, not implemented/activated in current firmware (9.315/9.350).

    Hi,

     

    I was told from a sophos employee, that it is very unlikely, that this SMS Auth will ever be activated/further developed in UTM. Rather they are focussing on XG Firewall, the sms auth. there is supposed to be more powerful and also capable of custom SMS provider configuration.

     

    In the moment I have a few "productive" installation, but I face the issue, that expired voucher are not beeing cleaned up. So new logins are not possible. Executing "/usr/local/bin/hotspot-maintenance.plx delete 1" doesn´t change anything. I only can resolve the issue with manually deleting the entry in the database... But that´s not a working solution. Any ideas?
