Hi all,
We would like to request all active CAT administrators to spare a few moments and log into CAT. The are two reasons whey we are asking for that.
1. CAT now records the date of the last login - this is a feature that should help in catching accounts that are no logger used and therefore should no longer be active. You can see the date of the last login in the add/remove administrators pop-up.
2. We will be changing the proxy host for the CAT administrator login. For most of the administrators this should not have any noticeable consequences, but in some cases it could turn out that you will no longer see your institutions. This potential problem is caused by an internal change on how the SAML login attributes are being handled. However if you login now, we will be able to record all needed information and then use it at the moment of change and as a result leave your access intact. We will of course announce the date of the change once it is set.
Yours
Tomasz Wolniewicz
