Hello all,

I have read documentation for using CAS with Ezproxy and it seems to agree with 
some postings on this list. However, I am missing something and thought someone 
here might want to weigh in.

I have the Ezproxy server registered as a service with CAS.

The Ezproxy URL format I am using (and successfully using login directly 
through Ezproxy) is something like:

http://myezproxy.server.com/login?url=http://myresource.com


According to the Ezproxy documentation for a CAS implementation:

Configuration

To enable Central Authentication Service (CAS)<http://www.jasig.org/cas>, edit 
user.txt/ezproxy.usr and add lines similar to:
::CAS
LoginURL http://www.yourlib.org/cas/login
ServiceValidateURL http://www.yourlib.org/cas/serviceValidate
/CAS

By default, the use of CAS disables EZproxy's normal login methods, including 
the presentation of the login menu.

My constructed URL looks something like this:
https://mycas.server.com/cas/login?service=http://myezproxy.server.com/login?url=http://myresource.com



After doing this, I restart Ezproxy. When I try to access one of the URLs, it 
takes me to the CAS login page, I log in, and it takes me to the Ezproxy login 
page. I'm not sure why it is not just taking me to the resource, as I thought 
this is supposed to disable the normal Ezproxy login method. I tried commenting 
out the configured login method for Ezproxy, but still it presents the login 
page.

If this is more of an Ezproxy question, I can follow up on that.

Many thanks, Christopher Adams
