Info
titleDescription

These instructions explain how to make Banner Self Service 78.x use CAS for authentication. It uses the Yale PL/SQL CAS Client, a custom WebTailor package, and a small mod to twbkwbis. It maps the username from CAS to the GOBTPAC_EXTERNAL_USER field. Keeping the GOBTPAC_EXTERNAL_USER field in sync with your LDAP directory, or whatever authentication source your CAS instance uses, is up to your institution.

Banner 8
According to the Banner Enterprise Identity Services Handbook, Appendix D:

The following SunGard applications have been enabled to participate in a CAS SSO
session:

  • Internet-native Banner
  • Banner Self-Service
  • Luminis Platform

So these instructions are only applicable for Banner 7.

It is only necessary to modify the package body. I have provided a patch file for version 78.42.0.3 1 (the latest at the time of this writing) of TWBKWBIS. If that isn't the version of Banner that you are currently running, I recommend getting version 78.42.0.31, applying this patch and then merging it into whatever version of TWBKWBIS you are using.
