David The good news is application could be modified, developers cooperate and would use phpCAS. And it's not deployed yet.
For now, they have their own user management, and user profile+credentials are in their own database. The question that they have is, what will happen to user credentials(username/password). in using CAS. Will those credentials stored in CAS's own DB and they wouldn't have users' credentials As far as I know, authentication information for each user is stored in CAS's own DB. If it is correct, for user creation, should they send a create query to CAS, that tells CAS to create an entry for new user corresponding a new user in their own DB?
