[cas-dev] cas-dev Digest, Vol 42, Issue 2

Smita / Meghana,

If the hostname of the CAS server you are trying to access for each
domain is the same, then you should be able to use CAS across multiple
domains.  CAS works by assigning a cookie called a ticket granting
cookie (TGC) with a randomly generated opaque string that the CAS server
uses to determine if you are logged in or not.  If each application
server is configured to use the same CAS server, then it should work
fine.  This is because the ticket granting cookies (TGC) are used
strictly by the CAS server; the application servers protected by CAS
clients should never see it nor need to.

As for newsletters and other stuff, CAS does not support it as it is
strictly a single sign on service.  If you'd like such features, then
you should handle that on the application server side.

HTH,

Hi Meghana,

I am also trying the similar thing of configuring CAS for cross domain.

Have you been able to configure it atleast for one of the technologies
so far?

Hello,

I have a couple of questions on CAS. My application is multi domain.
That means it has some jsp pages, php and also .net pages.

 I was wondering if CAS supports  these entire domains with single
login.

 Also how does it integrate with  database?

 And if the user wants to signup for  news letters, or some information,
does CAS handle   these?

 Please get back to me with the  answers.I really would appreciate your
help.

 Regards,

 Meghana  Janumpally
