Cal Poly - San Luis Obispo uses CAS extensively, including with technologies like Peoplesoft and Blackboard, and we are working on a project to extend CAS-based central authentication (and directory) services statewide integrating the CA K-12 and State University systems. |
Using Portal login as CAS login
We decided to make our CAS server look like our Portal. We started with LDAP authentication through uPortal directly then added CAS after the fact.
We prioritized maintaining the user experience and thus our CAS server became my.calpoly.edu. To accomplish that we modified CAS slightly so that if no service name appears we default to myportal.calpoly.edu. We've also added a 'My Portal Down Page' so that in the event of taking our portal server down for maintenance we have the remaining CASified apps available after logging into CAS. The page looks like this.
