With the new Debian Edu rootCA certificate (introduced with Debian Edu
10) being used as a base for authorizing the relationship between
clients and the network server TJENER, I observe that when plugging
one Debian Edu machine from one Debian Edu network into some other
Debian Edu network the Debian Edu client machine would adjust itself
to the new network (update Debian-Edu_rootCA.crt) during boot time.
I'd suggest going back to the previous behaviour where a notebook
would only attach itself to one Debian Edu TJENER on first boot and
from then on be only authorized to talk to the LDAP server of that
initial Debian Edu network it was booted in.

Currently, fetch-rootca-cert is either run on bootup (or via DHCP
hooks if https://salsa.debian.org/debian-edu/debian-edu-config/-/merge_requests/22 gets merged). The script checks whether /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/Debian-Edu_rootCA.crt
exists and is not empty and does nothing if so (see
https://salsa.debian.org/debian-edu/debian-edu-config/-/blob/7f7b819882e2fec58fd85d5d52db5248aafed48e/share/debian-edu-config/tools/fetch-rootca-cert#L28).
Isn't this already the TOFU behavior you suggest?

the current status looks good and it seems it has been around for more than two years.

So, closing this one.
