Carl,

Thanks for the recommendation. I'll need to check with our program's
SSO/CAS expert to see if that might be a solution.

I still haven't had any success compiling mod_auth_cas under 10.10. Notes
at https://ucdavis.jira.com/wiki/display/IETP/mod_auth_cas+OS+X
 provide a modified Makefile, but it isn't working for me.

Best,

Brad Perkins
