[Building Sakai] Check CAS on initial access

We set up Sakai/CAS using container login..

So when I can call https://xxxxx/portal/login , it will automatically 
check for CAS ticket and login me into Sakai, if I have a valid CAS 
session.. otherwise it route me to CAS Login page..

If you want to send to specific page.. then you may need a small jsp and 
check something like session.getAttribute("netid").. and route either to 
https://xxxxx/portal/login or guest page..

Thanks
Omer

We're beginning to setup with a campus SSO and would like our users to not have to click login only to be rerouted to their own Workspace (assuming they've logged into some other campus service) but to be taken to their Workspace directly on first access or the guest Workspace if not authenticated.
