Precise can't connect to a network guarded by an authentication
webserver whose address can only be looked up with one of the

Status in “resolvconf” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
Hi,
our academic wifi, is protected with authentication practiced with a
web page. The wifi network looks to be open to anyone, but to operate
it after having connected the wifi you need to open a web page. This
will automatically redirect you to an authentication page and after
you are authenticated you can work on the wifi.
The problem is that with precise you can never get to the
authentication page, since its url cannot be resolved.
The thing used to work fine with previous ubuntus and works fine with
Windows.
Thanks in advance for looking into it.
Sergio
