Thanks Philippe , i already got it working in zimbra 7 , we are trying at present in zimbra 8 , looks zimbra 8 has a lot more on sso , each domain sso can be configured through admin interface, i would update wiki once i achieve that.
Interesting indeed. For now, we've not moved yet to Zimbra 8.

There is one issue with zimbra + cas integration , i am not able to configure any mail client once i integrate zimbra 7 server with cas. Is that you also faced ?
I suppose you're talking about clients like Thunderbird, Outlook, etc ? The point is these clients are authenticated through Zimbra (via builtin ldap accounts or in our case AD account). With Zimbra 6 & 7, authentication of these clients completely ignores CAS.

    Hello,

    We use CAS to authenticate our zimbra users since Zimbra 6, it
    works very well but the "official" documentation is not very clear
    IMHO... A few things to think about :

    Zimbra side :
      - Use preauthentication scheme, as I remember, a simple
    application has to compute a HMAC and provide zimbra the mail +
    timestamp + hmac to "do" the zimbra authentication.

    CAS Side :
     - Unless you use mail as CAS principal, you'll have to deal with
    attributes ( https://wiki.jasig.org/display/CASUM/Attributes ).
    Attribute release will be done via SAML ticket validation only

    Preauthentication application :
      - As we've encoutered some difficulties to do the job with JSP,
    we wrote a little PHP page that uses php-cas library, validation
    is done via SAML of course.

    From a freshly started client browser, the following pages will be
    seen :
      - Open Zimbra login page
      - => redirect to login page specified in zimbra configuration
    (aka PHP preauth app)
      - => redirect to CAS
      - => redirect to PHP preauth APP with Service Ticket
      - => redirect to Zimbra preauth page with a few parameters
    (mail, timestamp, hmac)
      - Zimbra mail opened :-)

    Rgds.

        Hello iam trying to integrate zimbra 8.0 with cas , cas is
        configured with ldap. And zimbra is configured according the
        doc available for cas configuration with zimbra on the
        internet. The problem i face is when i open zimbra url it
        redirects me the cas url where i enter my ldap(uid & password)
        credentials , once authenticated , zimbra gives me a error of
        mail id not recognized.
        At present deployerconfiguration.xml of cas only knows about
        uid attribute of ldap. Is it needed to know mail attribute
        also,  even cas should also permit login through mailid and
        password ?
        If i would like to enable mail attribute also in cas , how
        would i do that , if someone has already done that please
        share it.

        Regards,
        Ritesh
