I mentioned to Nacho that I would post this.
I got Alice (my iBook running Tiger) updating it’s Network Location based off the ssid of the network it joins to when it wakes up from suspend.
I used a script (update-location.sh) from this page.
I just had to munge the script a little, the following line:
#look up the status
location=`grep -i "IT Airport" .wlans | awk -F"\t" '{print $2}'`
should read
#look up the status
location=`grep -i $wlan .wlans | awk -F"\t" '{print $2}'`
It’s all very neat.
