Hi John, Thanks for this. On VPN - OK, so if PPTP shouldn't be used, and SSL is not available, what should I use? On eduroam - well, I could put 'see Android' on the notes, I guess, but if someone were willing to put together a sheet with some screenshots from, say, Ubuntu, that'd be even better. Any takers? My first thought was to refer people to the central eduroam site: https://cat.eduroam.org/# which supports all OSes, but inexplicably PU does not appear on the list. I raised this within the IT help system some months ago, but no progress as yet.
