    jim phillips, who set up the original openbsd journal, has done this.
    some info:
      
            The Lincoln Community Wireless Network
            http://undeadly.org/cgi?action=article&sid=20040229195535

            wicap - a captive portal that doesn't suck
            http://undeadly.org/cgi?action=article&sid=20030724101753
            http://www.shmoo.com/~bmc/software/wicap/announce.html

    while lnkwireless isn't using wicap, wicap is some software you'll
    want to look at, as well.

    hope this helps.
