Good evening, Your question is a good one, and one that has come up before. It is the first question (and answer) in the CASFilter FAQ.
http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/CASC/CASFilter Andrew > First off, I realize one could user serviceUrl rather than serverName. That > not withstanding, I am wondering why serverName is a required parameter when > I use CASFilter. When a user attempts to access a protected page and the > request is intercepted by CASFilter, doesn't it (the filter) know what page > the user was trying to access (basically the service requiring > authentication)? Why is the filter not able to store this value and reuse it > rather than reconstructing the redirect url using serverName? > > Is there a way to configure CASFilter to not have to use it? Can I overcome > the mandatory serverName requirement if I use the jsp taglib method of > integrating to CAS (rather than using CASFilter)? I am afraid I am not > familiar with tag libraries and such. Excuse me if this is a naive question. > > Thanks. > > > > ____________________________________________________________________________________ > Be a PS3 game guru. > Get your game face on with the latest PS3 news and previews at Yahoo!
