[Rt-devel] Re: CAS SSO using RT

I didn't see this get answered, and while it's a bit more suitable for
rt-users, here you go...

You said that it was okay if the user had to exist first in RT, as
long as the followup authentication steps fit in your framework,
that's good, as it's usually not too hard to do that with
WebExternalAuth.

When RT uses WebExternalAuth, it uses the REMOTE_USER variable set by
the server. (there are some canonicalization functions). It looks like
there are some cas apache modules, so you should be able to use go
that route.

good luck
