Hi Massimiliano,

thanks for the quick reply.

These posts are interesting, but I think they cover a different use case than I 
had in mind and which I should have described in more detail.

The use case is that I have a number of Web applications (other than the 
Syncope console). Syncope should manage the users that can log in to the Web 
applications and CAS should offer SSO based on the user data in Syncope. I.e., 
the user wants to login to Web Application X which is protected by CAS filters. 
She is redirected to CAS which asks for the credentials if necessary. The 
credentials are validated by CAS against the user data in Syncope. After 
successful login, possibly authorizations could be set in the Web applications 
using the data in Syncope (this could be done using attributes sent by CAS with 
the ticket, or outside of CAS by calling Syncope from the Web application).

Is this a valid use case anyway? Are there best practices / existing code for 
this?

Best regards,
  Guido
