Thanks Scott. Do you use any of the extra flexibility for you CAS deployment? If so, please can you tell me what in particular? (Without giving away any secrets of course).

Is anybody on this list deploying CAS on Tomcat only?

Thanks

We generally run Apache in front as it gives us more flexibility with
configuration.  I believe its also faster but we've never really tested
Apache+Tomcat vs. Apache.  We're currently running Apache+AJP->Tomcat.

Is there any compelling reason to (or not to) run Apache in front of
Tomcat5.5 when we are dedicating a (virtual) server to run CAS? The Tomcat
documentation extols the virtues of Tomcat's raw performance whereas I have
seen other reports to the contrary. I am using OpenLDAP and the LDAP
authentication configuration in CAS 3.3 and really just want to do as little
as possible to have CAS up and running.

CAS is now hosted on Tomcat5.5 running CentOS and the plan was to put
Apache in front of it to handle the SSL connection but is there really any
advantage to doing this? If there's no compelling reason to do so, I am
inclined to stick with just using Tomcat given that I have (eventually)
managed to get it to work with our certificate infrastructure.

Thanks
