Plugin install fails with 64 bit linux firefox 3

I have tried to install the F5 plugin on 64 bit Firefox 3 and see this exact error described here:

Does this mean the F5 Firepass server is not 6.0.3? I have no idea what version my company is running, although an email was sent out saying the F5 server would be down for "maintenance" this weekend.

 

 

Also, does a plugin for x86_64 linux firefox 3 exist?

 

 

I have been using F5 with 32 bit linux and firefox with no problems.

    I've managed to get the firepass plugin to work on a 64 bit Ubuntu (9.04) system via nspluginwrapper:

    Basically, you have to install the firepass extension, shutdown firefox, execute "nswrapperplugin -i ", and start up firefox again.... at least, that is what it took in my situation.
