Or is the point just to make sure that you can receive users who are already logged in because of a portal or something like that? Can you point me at instructions on how to set this up? It sounds like that might be a good starting point for us.

This is what I wrote before (reproduced below). Sakai needs to be modified to check for local auth, then consult CAS via the gateway (or vice versa). If both fail, they need to choose how to authenticate (CAS or xlogin)

> 3. If neither 1 or 2 succeeded, have the intermediate window where they choose how to login.
