Fabio,

I hope I have understood your question correctly. CAS seems to set
REMOTE_USER http header with the username of the user. This is available
in the Client therefore you can pass it along to anything you want. 

Cheers

Subject: [cas-user] Passing Username from CAS to Shibboleth IdP

Hi all,

I'm managing to configurate a shibboleth IdP for University of Milan but
we have very strict policies with CAS server and LDAP.
A standard approach would have been to authenticate with CAS and then
ask LDAP for attributes... but here CAS is fully hiding LDAP behind
himself and I need at least the authenticated Username from CAS in order
to let my IdP to play with any attributes.
I'm a newbie with CAS so my question is:
Would it be possible to have the CAS client to retrieve the Username
when authenticating with CAS server, and then pass it forward to
shibboleth IdP?

Thanks in advance for any idea!

Fabio
