Janet Roaming on Linux

 

Setting Janet Roaming up for Linux is far easier then for the old system. Basically, all you need is your wireless working and WPA_supplicant.

The settings that worked for me on Arch Linux and should work with few modifications for any other systems are as follows:

just place the following code in your wpa_supplicant config. 


ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant

ctrl_interface_group=0

eapol_version=1

ap_scan=1

network={

	ssid="eduroam"

	proto=WPA WPA2

	scan_ssid=1

	key_mgmt=WPA-EAP

	group=CCMP TKIP

	eap=TTLS

	ca_cert="location/of/cacert.crt"

	
anonymous_identity="@st-andrews.ac.uk"
	
phase2="auth=PAP"
	
identity="username@st-andrews.ac.uk"
	
password="password"

}

You also will need to download the university certificate from here It's important that the anonymous_identity is left as it is in the config - it's not a typo.

There are guides for other universities but the config here works on the St Andrews system for me.
