[cas-dev] Tomcat Valve Connector

[Eric Pugh (OSC)]

I've been on vacation for the past couple weeks, so I missed this  
email.  For MITRE I wrote a valve that allowed tomcat to use CAS as  
an authencation module.  Just the way you can specific Form or Basic  
as auth modes we added "CAS".  The only annoying thing was that some  
weird stuff in Tocmat had to be done due to various hardcodings in  
the code.  At any rate, if you are interested I can dig up what we  
did (It was over a year ago!).

It did make it drop dead simple to hook Tomcat to JBoss.
