Dear all,
I am new at this mailing list. First of all, thanks for giving me an
opportunity to join.
I need to implement Shibboleth system for authentication purpose.
Honestly, I am a newbie at CAS and Shibboleth. As a newbie, I have done my
homework that I have explore the following links:
- http://www.ja-sig.org/products/cas/index.html
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Authentication_Service
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shibboleth
- http://shibboleth.internet2.edu/
From there, I learn some important points as I resume here:
- CAS is a single-sign-on protocol for web. It enables us to sign only once,
but we can access others application / web as long as they have registered with
CAS (right)? [Please correct me, if I have some mistaken or miscenception]
However, somehow the explanation is too confusing. For example, I still
could not get the idea what is the relationship between CAS and Sibbholeth.
Could somebody explain it to me by simple and comprehensive explanation?
Many thanks!
Regards,
Wely
