Thank you Scott. In our application we set the application-scope  
session timeout to half a hour. But after the application-scope  
session get timeout, the users get redirected to CAS, and then it  
seems CAS login for them automatically (not asking them to enter  
loginname and password again) and redirect back to application. We  
deduce that is because TGC is not expired so the login info is still  
on the CAS server? Or it's not concerned with CAS at all, and maybe  
some application-scope cookies are affecting it(We are trying to  
figure it out but still haven't made any progress)?

Thanks for help!

Best Regards,
- Li Wei Nan
