Hi,

so you are providing off-campus eduroam service for some, perhaps Ljubljana-based,
University or research institution? (Which is a good thing to do, if you have many
of their users on your own campus and want to give them easy, secure access.)

This is the way to go, of course. Take a look at https://cat.eduroam.org
There are ~30 Institutions listed for Ljubljana -- pretty impressive TBH.
Your partner might be among them. If so, configuration should be easy:
Fire up Safari on the client and import their .mobileconfig.
This _should_ configure the client correctly. Just make sure
_all_ manual and/or profile configs for eduroam are purged from
the client before -- and a reboot after deletion is a good idea.
Do other clients (Linux, Windows, iOS, Android) fare any better?
You might want to access the remote FR 2.1 with eapol_test
to see what it actually delivers, cf.

Good Luck
Martin
