We enabled the CAS RESTful API 
(https://wiki.jasig.org/display/CASUM/RESTful+API) and setup a simple enough 
perl script on our F5s to monitor our CAS system.  This allows our F5 to 
monitor that CAS is allowing users to login and is generating service tickets 
properly.  From there, we have our monitoring software reporting on the status 
of our F5 pool.

Subject: Re: [cas-user] Headless CAS anyone?

Yes, the authentication is done by the CAS via the HTTP GET method.

A positive side effect of this decision is that if you want to use X509 mutual 
authentication (Two way SSL) you will not have problems with a problem of 
mod_ssl (The requested method POST is not allowed for the URL).

Cheers,

Yuri

Sort of a strange question:

 cas login via GET?

 Once upon a time I wrote a load runner test to automatically log in to CAS
but, my VM died and sadly it is gone.  Our NetOps people want to monitor the
CAS servers and they want more than just a successfully delivered login
page, has anyone out there had to do something like this and what are your
recommendations?

Thanks

Dean
