Okay why is eduroam not working this time (2.4 not either), I swear KU Leuven is trying to block me, fucking colonial university

@queerthoughts@tech.lgbt might https://cat.eduroam.org/ be helpful?
it depends on Python and python-dbus to communicate with NetworkManager to autoconfigure the profile (if you happen to use that or a desktop environment that relies on it)
also this troubleshooting from the Arch Wiki might be useful: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Network_configuration/Wireless#eduroam -
@lucent I already explained in a separate reply that didn't work. I doubt it's a technical issue, I am becoming convinced it's a block disguised as a technical issue.

@queerthoughts@tech.lgbt yeah, I figured out your other post after firing the reply, I modified the message to include a link small troubleshooting paragraph on the Arch Wiki (which applies anyways to whatever distro uses the same network management stack) about OpenSSL woes, such as old TLS being disabled (as it's deprecated by default) on modern distros and permissions
-
@lucent I don't really understand what's written on the Arch Wiki there. It's weird how it just suddely failed. I know it's not an issue with the network because no one else is having issues. It just suddenly stopped working without any changes made to the configuration on my end.

@queerthoughts@tech.lgbt that little eduroam paragraph boils down to two possibilities:
- the NetworkManager profile should be set to be readable&writable only for root (sochmod 600 profile, the location for profiles is usually/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/) so NM/wpa-supplicant don't complain about secrets being "world readable"
- the authentication fails due to a crypto suite mismatch, since OpenSSL 3 disabled all vulnerable protocols and you need to override that behaviour by setting on NetworkManager to authenticate using TLS 1.0 or TLS 1.1, explained further on this other troubleshooting page: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/NetworkManager#WPA_Enterprise_connections_fail_to_authenticate_with_OpenSSL_%22unsupported_protocol%22_error
