-===== 2021-03-01New SSH Login Servers  =====+===== 2023-08-07Change  of WiFi Certificate of C.S.dept. and B-IT =====
  
-We deployed two new ssh login servers for you:+Today we did renew the certificate for our wifi infrastructure. At the same time we switched over to the new certification authority hosted by the DFN (GEANT, just like the HRZ did some days before, you may remember the mail about eduroam).
  
-for staffers: login-staff.informatik.uni-bonn.de  +This means that all wifi configurations of your devices that are used to 
-for students: login-stud.informatik.uni-bonn.de +connect to the computer science deptor the b-it (eduroam-cs and 
 +802.1X) have to be reconfigured to check for the new certificate/and 
 +or CA.
  
-The new fingerprints are available at the usual URL: +You will find the current [[en:wifistd|fingerprints and certificate downloads]] at the usual place.
-https://gsg.cs.uni-bonn.de/doku.php?id=en:ssh:fingerprints +
- +
-The old servers will be available for you until friday (2021-03-05, +
-9:00am). At that time we will shut them down and redirect their DNS +
-names to the new servers for some time to aid your migration there.+
  
 +The VPN service is *not* affected by these changes.\\
