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

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

Hi,

good question, I don't know if it even reaches the Network Access
Server and/or RADIUS as I could never enter the credentials at any
point, not even when trying to store them via advanced options before
connecting.

If I have time to test again I will ask our server admins if they see
an attempt in the logs.

Greetings, Lukas
