cas integration question

[Scott Battaglia]

Greg,

In order for a client to use the CAS Server, no changes to the CAS Server
are required.  You need to configure the CAS clients themselves to provide a
serviceUrl and the URLs to the CAS server.  The documentation for each of
the CAS Client implementations (Java, PHP) should explain how and where to
configure these URLs.

What happens then is that when you attempt to access the protected client
application, the CAS clients will detect this and redirect to the CAS server
(to present the login screen or to participate in the SSO session).
