Presumably you are in the US? ... It's a shame that US eduroam seems to 
forbid subdomains for it's own institutions (lots of organisations doing 
eduroam in Europe use subdomain realms).

I think this may mess things up... but you shouldn't need to *modify* the 
realm? [More info about your specifics please]?

The realm on the outer ID will get the auth to your FR (anything at uni.edu). 
The realm [if present] on the inner ID is generally stripped before it 
goes to ntlm_auth against your AD).
