How to store data from the Authentication in the Principal

[Scott Battaglia]

The default implementation of the Attribute code only works if you also
configure an appropriate service using the Services Management tool.  CAS is
designed to only send back attributes if a service in the Service Management
tool is configured to accept those attributes.

Services in the Services Management tool can be configured using Ant Pattern
Matching so the definition of a service is pretty broad.
