Well, it's about that time of year when assignments are due, and we're all looking forward to a few weeks off between semesters. I still have other assignments I need to work on today, so I'm not going to make a full post like I would like right now, but I just want to say that the NetworkManager Automatic Web Authentication 0.3 release for OSD600 is done, and this is my nearly-official announcement of it. Main thing is, I'm hoping some people will test it out, and I'll be making a longer post later. So, without further ado, instructions: WARNING: 32-BIT X86 LINUX ONLY
- Download and extract the tarball
- From the release director, install into Firefox the nmAutoLogin-x86.xpi file
- Run the nmAutoLogin.py file from the release directory
- python nmAutoLogin.py
- if the permissions held true...
- double-click and run
- ./nmAutoLogin.py
- Make sure Firefox is open and the extension installed
- connect (or reconnect) to a wireless network with NetworkManager
- Watch as a window opens and submit itself
Any suggestions, idea, glitches, bugs, errors, comments, etc. are helpful and requested. The easiest way to do this is to just add a comment to this post.

I tried to test this out for you but I'm not sure what I should be expecting to see. installed the extensions and started the python script. Then I changed from my personal wireless network to my landlord wireless network. But I didn't see any window pop-up and submit itself?
