I ended up developing a CAS module for drupal to perform this auth. I haven't ported it to 4.7 yet, but will be doing this. It's not on the drupal site.
What plugin are you using? I wasn't aware of other code to support CAS authentication in drupal.....
Would you be interested in my CAS module when I port it to 4.7? The technique I used for this was to develop my own login block to replace the login block that's available in the "user module".

Hi All ...
I've been lurking for a little bit now and finally have a 'real' question. I've been very pleased with testing Drupal so far. I have a small group that needs a content management platform. Drupal seems to provide the right balance of being configurable-yet-simple enough to use for the task.
Also, I'm looking to use single sign-on with drupal via CAS. The plug-in installs without a hitch and I configured the host, path etc. In the instructions it says to:
- Set a Login link (primary links in your theme works well) that
goes to "cas"
I'm not quite getting it. Does it mean to add a menu item with a path of "cas" or "/cas"? If so, that does not work. Or does it mean to hack the them where the login block is? As far as I can see, the login form action is just "/?q=node&destination=". Would you set that to "?q=cas" or "?q=node/cas" ? What in the 'theme' would you modify? Themes are coming up on my list of things to figure out ... but grepping for 'login' or 'user-login' in my current theme's directory doesn't turn anything up in those files.
TIA,

Dave,
I'm very interested. This is where I picked up the one that I am testing out:
http://www.longsight.com/blog/drupal-cas-single-sign-on
When you say ...
The technique I used for this was to develop my own login block to replace the login block that's available in the "user module".
That may be what they mean by:
- Set a Login link (primary links in your theme works well) that
goes to "cas"
I'm just still getting up to speed on these aspects of drupal.

Dave,
BTW, how does one go about modifying the login block .. or is that a themes list question? Also, I'm happy to contribute to updating it to 4.7 .. will help me learn the innards of drupal better, not to mention get the site I'm working on authenticating the way I want it to.
Thanks again,
jason
