Hi
I am trying to change hotspot-user password via PHP-API using PEAR2. The code is working for the hotspot-user which I created inside the Hotspot (NAS) itself. But I am using an external AAA ( User Manager ) to create and authenticate users. In this case my code for hotspot-user password change not working. I am listing my code -


<?php
use PEAR2\Net\RouterOS;
require_once 'PEAR2/Autoload.php';

$errors = array();

try {
    //Adjust RouterOS IP, username and password accordingly.
    $client = new RouterOS\Client('110.XXX.52.56', 'admin', 'netboyzin');

    $printRequest = new RouterOS\Request(
        '/ip hotspot active print',
        RouterOS\Query::where('address', $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'])
    );
    $hotspotUsername = $client->sendSync($printRequest)->getArgument('user');
} catch(Exception $e) {
    $errors[] = $e->getMessage();
}

if (isset($_POST['password']) && isset($_POST['password2'])) {
    if ($_POST['password'] !== $_POST['password2']) {
        $errors[] = 'Passwords do not match.';
    } elseif (empty($errors)) {
        //Here's the fun part - actually changing the password
        $setRequest = new RouterOS\Request('/ip hotspot user set');
        $client($setRequest
            ->setArgument('numbers', $hotspotUsername)
            ->setArgument('password', $_POST['password'])
        );
    }
}

Here 110.XXX.52.56 is the NAS ( Hotspot) IP. Here I have tried using AAA ( User Manager ) IP also but no luck.

Do you have any ideas about how-to change password for the users defined in the external User Manager ?

Thanks in advance.

You need to use the AAA IP. Otherwise, you're just adjusting the local entry, which is then automatically overwritten the next time the NAS refreshes info from the AAA.

At the AAA, you need to target the entry within user manager, not "/ip hotspot user".

Since the AAA doesn't know the currently logged in user, you'll first have to get that with the NAS, i.e.

<?php
use PEAR2\Net\RouterOS;
require_once 'PEAR2/Autoload.php';

$errors = array();

try {
    //Adjust NAS RouterOS IP, username and password accordingly.
    $client = new RouterOS\Client('110.XXX.52.56', 'admin', 'netboyzin');

    $printRequest = new RouterOS\Request(
        '/ip hotspot active print',
        RouterOS\Query::where('address', $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'])
    );
    $hotspotUsername = $client->sendSync($printRequest)->getArgument('user');

    //Adjust AAA RouterOS IP, username and password accordingly.
    $client = new RouterOS\Client('110.YYY.52.56', 'admin', 'netboyzin');
} catch(Exception $e) {
    $errors[] = $e->getMessage();
}

if (isset($_POST['password']) && isset($_POST['password2'])) {
    if ($_POST['password'] !== $_POST['password2']) {
        $errors[] = 'Passwords do not match.';
    } elseif (empty($errors)) {
        //Here's the fun part - actually changing the password
        $setRequest = new RouterOS\Request('/tool user-manager user set');
        $client($setRequest
            ->setArgument('numbers', $hotspotUsername)
            ->setArgument('password', $_POST['password'])
        );
    }
}
