CAS "nologin"

[Scott Battaglia]

Dale,

CAS supports a feature called "gateway". You can have your application
redirect to CAS with a parameter of gateway=true.  If a single sign on
session exists, CAS will redirect back to the application with a ticket.
Otherwise it will merely redirect back to the application.  Using this, you
can determine which page to display.
