Hi,
 
Thanks to everyone who helped me (newbie) understand why CAS uses a different 
ServiceTicket per application (especially the security consideration that, if 
one application is compromised, the others may still be safe).
 
Special appreciation to those who manage to provide (useful) replies at 5AM in 
the morning ;)
 
My question was originally triggered by comparing CAS to Sun's OpenSSO 8.0.
I thought I'd share the conclusion, just in case the question ever pops up 
again (e.g. by other newbies migrating from other SSO tools, or if someone does 
another "head to head" presentation)...
To the best of my understanding, OpenSSO defaults to using shared tokens, as 
described for example  here:
http://developers.sun.com/identity/reference/techart/app-integration.html
However, it can be configured to use separate tokens, as described here (link 
kindly provided by OpenSSO forum):

Thanks again for the help.
