Hi Per,

It's likely it's the trailing space (if that's what they added). Based on the
settings in the CAT profile (either of the two that I downloaded), that's the
only thing I can think of... :-/

Kind regards

Hi


I had a report from support that when using the geteduroam app on an
older Chromebook, the app would not accept "77777 AT net.aau.dk
<mailto:77777 AT net.aau.dk>" as a valid
user name. Because the username must end with "aau.dk".


I don't have any more info. So it might just be they added a trailing space.


Have you heard of any similar issues?
