CAS Client config via JNDI?

[Benson Fung]

The cas-extend project is used by www.firstlook.biz.  It was meant as a
work around to some of our troubles with SSL and load balancing.  I
suggest you use the official client or the yale client unless there are
requirements that you cannot meet, then try the extended client.  Make
sure to read the documentation thoroughly, as it says "Please see the
documentation for this filter, it is not secure by design".  It was done
that way to add in the extra flexibility our environment demanded.

We would be happy to donate code if the official clients decided to add
in features already in the cas-extend client.

Subject: CAS Client config via JNDI?


I just randomly stumbled across this "Extended CAS Client", which
supports (among other things) configuration via JNDI.  Has anyone here
used this client, or has any thought been given to JNDI configuration in
the JA-SIG client?
