Dave,

I see the client is a plugin.  It is still on the Python Package Index 
(PyPI)[1], so I pulled it down and can read the source.

It looks like the plugin logs to the standard `logger` module using a logger 
named "anz.casclient".
I don't see that the settings are overridden, so it presumably has the same log 
levels as the root logger, which would be set up somewhere in the portal.
I am not sure where your client has their Zope logs pointing to (e.g. file, 
syslog, something else?), but any errors ought to be in the log.  Probably at 
the `WARN` log level if I am reading the code correctly.

Thanks,
Carl

>From what I understand. Zope IS the CAS client.  It seems to be some
sort of Python-based portal with CAS client support built into it.  I
found some very old (ca 2005-2007) references to it in the JASig CAS
documentation even, so it appears to have worked with CAS at least at
some point.
