Dear CAS users,

Sympa mailing list manager now supports CAS. This have been done in order to use Sympa with various way of authentication including :
multiple CAS server.

If the user is not authenticated by Sympa, Sympa first try the no blocking redirection to each CAS server as defined in auth.conf. If one of this redirection  return a CAS ticket Sympa validate it agains the related CAS server and then fetch the user email  from net-id using a LDAP server. If no CAS ticket is return, the user can browse Sympa interface anonymously or request a login though one of the CAS server.

Sympa authentication configuration description : http://www.sympa.org/distribution/unstable/doc/html/node9.html

 If you want to have a look to the user interface please send me :
  • Your CAS server parameter : login, logout and validate URI
  • The LDAP search URL that allow to fetch email from user id (please have a look to the documentation for details)
By the way, I will add your CAS into our dev server configuration and give you access to it.

You can download this alpha version : http://www.sympa.org/distribution/sympa-4.0.a5.tar.gz .

Regards
Serge Aumont
