NetworkManager Automatic Web Authentication: 0.3 pre-release PDF Print E-mail

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

  1. Download and extract the tarball 
  2. From the release director, install into Firefox the nmAutoLogin-x86.xpi file
  3. Run the nmAutoLogin.py file from the release directory
    • python nmAutoLogin.py
    • if the permissions held true...
      • double-click and run
      • ./nmAutoLogin.py
  4. Make sure Firefox is open and the extension installed
  5. connect (or reconnect) to a wireless network with NetworkManager
  6. 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.

Ran this on Ubuntu 8.10 32bit with Firefox 3.1b2pre and it connected to my home wireless. I can test with SeneNet tomorrow if you need?
Not sure?

Hey,

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?
