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

[Tomasz Wolniewicz <twoln AT umk.pl>]

Hi,
   First of all it really is a very bad practice blocking your users
from using anonymous identity, but this is beside the point.
I never got a report that specifying the empty anonymous-identity would
actually cause problems, definitely there is no reason to do that so I
will make a fix in he installer.
