The mailing list for users of the eduroam Configuration Assistant Tool (CAT)

[Tomasz Wolniewicz <twoln AT umk.pl>]

Can you be more specific?
Usually the way that you can get things to work is by turning off all 
security, i.e. server certificate validation.
CAT really does not do anything more ore less then you can do by 
clicking various options in the interlace.

Yes, please share the installation guide.
