Thank you for your prompt response. So my urls are valid. I read the
reference and I noted the following:

- It is strongly recommended NOT to use the physical hostname of a server
running Shibboleth as the entityID (Persistence)
- Select a URI that you control directly and could resolve at some future
date (Resolution).


       Regards,

      Stamatis
