The Horatio system is a firewall authentication tool. The premise: legitimate users want to attach laptops and other mobile hosts to the network, but security demands that illegitimate users be prevented from accessing the internal, secure network and from abusing the general Internet. The approach taken by Horatio is to provide a separate, untrusted network that only connects to the internal network (and thus to the Internet) through a firewall that by default does not pass any traffic. When a legitimate user connects his or her host, it is assigned an address by a DHCP server (such as dhcpd), but is unable to contact anything outside the untrusted network. The user must point a Web browser at the Horatio web server, which runs on the firewall machine, and provide a username and password. Once the username and password have been validated, the firewall rules are modified to allow the host access to the rest of the network.
