Problems while updating eduroam certificates

Windows

If no longer a connection to eduroam can be established you have to update the certificates by installing eduroam again. You can get the installation tool on Configuration Assistant Tool (CAT).

If it's not able to open a connection after updating the certificates, you have to delete the installed ones. The possibility to do this in Windows is opening the certificate manager "certmgr.msc". There you have to search the certificate "T-TeleSec GlobalRoot Class 2" and remove all that are not valid till 2033. And then also search for certificates from "DFN-Verein Global Issuing CA" and remove all which are not valid till 2031.

Linux

For the installation on Linux you first download the installation script of the Universität Heidelberg from Configuration Assistant Tool (CAT) (it's a python script called "eduroam-linux-Universitat_Heidelberg-Standard_ab_2024.py"). After that remove the old profile by opening the configuration form of eduroam on the "NetworkManager" and clicking "forget connection". Then run the script with python.
