CasLoginContrib

Usage

This is a login manager for TWiki which allows integration in a CAS Single Sign On infrastructure.

Once installed, it provides users with a "trip" to a CAS server to enter usernames and passwords when authentication is required in TWiki.

To activate it, you will specify TWiki::LoginManager::CasLogin (or TWiki::Client::CasLogin for TWiki 4.1.x) in the security setup section of configure.

Examples

Configure the following variables to activate this Login manager :

$TWiki::cfg{LoginManager} = 'TWiki::LoginManager::CasLogin'; # or 'TWiki::Client::CasLogin'; for TWiki 4.1.x
$TWiki::cfg{CAS}{casUrl} = 'https://yourcas.yourdomain/cas';
$TWiki::cfg{CAS}{CAFile} = '/etc/ssl/certs/your_CAS.pem';

Should you wish to trace execution of Client/LoginManager, you may set also :

$TWiki::cfg{Trace}{Client} = 1;

Installation Instructions

• For an automated installation, run the configure script and follow "Find More Extensions" in the in the Extensions section.

Contrib Info

This initial attempt at packaging the CasLogin is based on work done by CharlieReitsma (See TWiki:Codev.CasLogin), modified by OlivierBerger to work with TWiki 4.1.2, and assembled into a Contrib package.

You'll find the original version of CharlieReitsma meant for TWiki 4.2 in CasLogin.
