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

[Lukas Wringer <Lukas.Wringer AT rz.uni-augsburg.de>]

Hi,

we provide the needed parameters for eduroam in our knowledge base to 
allow manual configuration. All Linux users that actively asked us for 
help were fine with the python script.

I can only remember one case where a user used WiCd instead of Network 
Manager so nothing worked with the script...

Greetings

Lukas
