I think that u are talking about 9.2 from Esri. If u develop Esri "Gis
Client" there is no problem at all (it's easy enoght like any other
Cas installation). If u are talking about old version consider to use
a wms connector under tomcat and protect this with a Yale Cas Client.
Start setup with 3 Servers.
1) cas server
2) arcims and/or connector and a simple servlet
3) A pc client with browser

Try using cas as sso for the simple servlet. When all goes well, try
with connector and then with arcims.

What u need is just time to try.

If your system use Apache as front end use mod_cas. But should be a little hard.

Good work
