Hi,

Is it possible for OpenKM to use authentication from CAS instead of LDAP?

I did some test a couple of years ago using JOSSO and worked fine because is implemented at JAAS layer. Didn't try CAS, son I can't help you but would be nice to receive any feedback in this sense.

Edit: I found this article about JBoss and CAS (How to set up JBoss with CAS Single Sign On)

Hi Pavila,

Thanks for the link.

I was actually able to get OpenKM to redirect to CAS and authentication, but is still unable to do the authorization. Do you have any clues or hints as to how the authentication works?

Hi Pavila,

Is there anyway to do away with JAAS and use other security mechanism?

Well, you need some J2EE knowledge but should be easy. As I said in my first response, JOSSO integration is easier to setup.
