Martin, Our University uses Sun Directory Server (ldap) so we first setup the ldap server integration (which can create accounts) and then added cas in front of the ldap user. We need ldap even with cas because ldap defined the group membership for the users.
In your case I am sure you could use the ldap plugin as a base, but there may be a better integration point for your site. Check out their plugin list. - Rhian From: Martin Simons [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, April 29, 2009 11:56 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [cas-user] Integrating vBulletin and CAS Rhian, thanks for your reply. How does vBulletin handle this integration? Does it create new users on vBulletin-side automatically as soon as a new CAS-authenticated user arrives or does the user still have to manually "register" himself with the forums? We're not using an LDAP-server either...do I correctly understand your approach in that you just hacked the LDAP plugin but don't actually rely on LDAP?

It didn't take long and was pretty straight forward. - Rhian From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, April 29, 2009 7:45 AM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: RE: [cas-user] Integrating vBulletin and CAS Hello everybody, I figure nobody has worked with VBulletin and CAS before. But can anybody maybe recommend another bulletin board software that supports CAS out of the box or is easily modifiable to do so? Thanks a lot for you advice, Martin Quick question: Anybody having experience or tipps concerning an integration of the vBulletin forums system and CAS? A search for "vBulletin" and "CAS" on Google yields...well...a lot of vBulletins :-) Regards, Martin -- You are currently subscribed to [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> as: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> To unsubscribe, change settings or access archives, see http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/JSG/cas-user -- You are currently subscribed to [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> as: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> To unsubscribe, change settings or access archives, see http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/JSG/cas-user -- You are currently subscribed to [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> as: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> To unsubscribe, change settings or access archives, see http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/JSG/cas-user -- You are currently subscribed to [email protected] as: [email protected] To unsubscribe, change settings or access archives, see http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/JSG/cas-user -- You are currently subscribed to [email protected] as: [email protected] To unsubscribe, change settings or access archives, see http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/JSG/cas-user
