Hello,

I'm wondering what solutions may already exist for this -- if you have any 
ideas.

I have a CAS-protected application.  CAS is great, but one thing I wish I could 
change is that when CAS returns the authenticated user to my application, it 
appends a ticket-number onto the URL in a querystring variable.

The complaint I get from my users, is that when they bookmark my app from their 
browser, the bookmark doesn't work.  The reason for this, which they would not 
be aware of, is that by the time they use the bookmark again, the ticket-number 
is expired.

So far, I just tell them to manually update the properties on their bookmark to 
remove the querystring portion of the URL.

I've considered doing an immediate re-direct (to the same page, without the 
querystring), which I think should work fine, but it does have the drawback of 
loading the page twice.

I don't administer CAS at my institution -- and unfortunately, our tech support 
folks who administer CAS won't be much help unless I can tell them exactly what 
I want them to do for me (e.g., open the file named "xyz", and change the 
whatever setting to false.)  I'm wondering too, though, if this is something I 
can change in the web.config of my own applications.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thank you,
- dave
