Yeah we're having the same problem here with dev and production using the same 
war. Using two different wars would easily lead to configuration drift.

We are looking at using unicon's shib-cas-authenticator package to integrate 
our existing shibboleth deployment into our new CAS deployment. Reviewing the 
documentation at:

        https://github.com/Unicon/shib-cas-authenticator

it seems it wants to embed configuration into the WAR file. I've never really 
understood the fascination in the Java community with embedding configuration 
into binaries 8-/, it makes it rather difficult to package and deploy at scale 
:(. I have production, dev, and test CAS servers, as well as corresponding 
shibboleth servers, and I'd really like to build *one* WAR file to deploy on 
all of them, and have the specifics of the configuration maintained in external 
configuration files.

Is there any easy way to externalize the configuration the documentation says 
to embed in cas-authentication-facade/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml and 
$CATALINA_HOME/webapps/idp/WEB-INF/web.xml?

One thing that's nice about shibboleth is that the default configuration does 
externalize configuration into the filesystem rather than try to embed it in 
the WAR file...

Thanks...
