Fwd: SingleSignout Problems

If you're using Tomcat, you won't see them unless you enable its access log
writing.

Essentially what should happen is that when you log out of CAS it will send
an HTTP POST to each application's service url indicating they should
destroy the session.

Thanks for your response.
I don't see any POST. But maybe I am not looking at the right place? I tried
catalina.out on the windowsXP setup where I am testing. Should I look
elsewhere?

Thanks for your time.

Are you seeing POST calls in your Apache logs to the service url?  That
would indicate whether CAS is sending the Single Sign Out message or not.
