Hi,

We have a requirement where we need to integrate Central Authentication Service 
(CAS) with SharePoint 2010. We did find a pointer to integrate it with MOSS 
2007 (http://eduyalesomauth.codeplex.com/), however SharePoint 2010 claims 
based authentication is built on Windows Identity Foundation (WIF), hence this 
solution is not useful.

Helpful links found through google discuss of an inherent issue faced by people 
when integrating CAS with SharePoint 2010; SharePoint expects the user’s 
password when redirecting after successful authentication at the following 
line: 

SPClaimsUtility.AuthenticateFormsUser(Request.Url, username, password); 

(Details of this issue can be found here- 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3428152/issues-using-external-authentication-with-sharepoint-2010
 )

We have few questions:
1.      Any link / document which describes the exact steps to follow to 
integrate CAS with SharePoint 2010
2.      Any way out to overcome the above problem (need to pass a password)
3.      Has Jasig / Yale come up with a solution on this?
4.      Is there some way Jasig / Yale web service can pass the credentials 
along with the Boolean value (Yes / No- if user is authenticated), so we pass 
the user’s password in the above redirect method?

Thanks in advance!
