Hi,

Martyn, I work on the CAT side of things. I didn't see a need to get
involved since you are in good hands at the UK Federation:

There is something wrong with the entry called "Xaverian College".

The problem is not with CAT, and we can't do anything to fix it. It's on
the end of the conversation that should ask you for your username and
password at Xaverian, but doesn't. For reasons UK Fed understands much
better than I do, that broken place is on a server called
"login.openathens.net". And that's all I know.

Folks from UK Fed are investigating why this entry is there, why it's
defunct, and whether it maybe is obsolete and shouldn't be there in the
first place. I'll be happy to read about their conclusions, if any.

The only thing I can say is: many other Identity Providers from that
very long list of universities in the eduGAIN list work just fine, so we
clearly don't seem to have an issue on our side.

As for United ID: they are listed on the eduGAIN pane, and when I click
there I get a username/password prompt rather than an error page, so
things look good. At least, much better than at Xaverian anyway :-) I
obviously can't say for sure if the login with United ID would actually
work because I don't have an account there to try with.

Greetings,

Stefan Winter
