 The grammar didn't parse that's the reason why it failed. The user agent in the example is obviously broken.

What should we do about this one? User-agent updates are always done in the background so the user should never be aware of that. Correct?

My take on this is that it can fail and we don't worry about it. What do you think?

 Reminder sent to: fgaudreault, user201

not sure if this is still an issue.. If anyone has a minute can you try to reproduce by:
- trying to above command on the latest version
- spoof your useragent to "Météo/1.0 CFNetwork/459 Darwin/10.0.0d3" and check if the user_agent updates properly when you hit the captive portal

both tests are important

 Still failing using the command :

/usr/local/pf/bin/pfcmd 'node edit ca:fe:ba:be:be:ef user_agent="M%C3%A9t%C3%A9o/1.0 CFNetwork/459 Darwin/10.0.0d3"'
Command not understood. (pfcmd grammar test failed at line 223.)

 Digging a bit, I found that the pfcmd 'node edit ...' call was replaced with a straight node_modify call in revno: 9cf9d7b61bdc956f6c9777faf8ba324507aca2f2

Can you perform the second test then? and then see what gets in the admin interface and what happens if we try to modify it with it (pfcmd node edit will then be called).

 The user-agent is properly handled. It has been previously fixed in 1.9.0.
