The code in my post above seems to be missing bits....
Attached is the script I use as a file.
If you still have problems it might be worth using another folder to hold your scripts; anything under MyDocs is on the 32GB drive which is a FAT32 format and so cannot be given execute permissions. I use /home/user/scripts as for my bash scripts.
Attached Files
File Type: txt connect.sh.txt (1.2 KB, 53 views)

Also of note is the alarmd schedule. I use the 'cron string' scheduling in alarmd as I only want this script to run during my working hours.
Examples:
*/5 9-17 * * 1-5 <-- Every 5 minutes, 9am til 5pm, Mon to Fri, 365 days a year.

30 * * * 1-5 <-- Half past every hour, weekdays

Thanks, that worked for me, and definitely more user-friendly than my attempt. Mine still seems to be throwing errors if the network isn't found.

However, it might be a moot point. When I opened alarmed today I noticed that "connect to network" is a built-in event type. Don't think that was there earlier in the year. So maybe the script is no longer necessary.

......

feature was just added last month! :-D

aww dang. alarmed built-in network connect does not check to see if you are already connected to the network. so it will perpetually disconnect and reconnect in our usage case. Looks like I still need the script.

The script above fails when the profile / network name contains non-letters, e.g., "Some Uni (iphone.works-here)". Please share the fix for this problem, if you have it.
