[Building Sakai] User account integration

Hello,

I¹m looking to use an external MySQL database to authenticate users in Sakai
2.7. Password and certain profile changes (i.e., first & last names) done
from within Sakai also need to filter over to this MySQL database. Any
pointers? I¹ve done some searching and found articles on how to implement
LDAP or CAS, but nothing along these lines. I¹m new to Sakai so please be
patient with me ;-)

A secondary objective would be to support SSO, including signing the user
into Sakai if they sign in elsewhere, sign out of Sakai if they sign out
elsewhere, sign in to other resources if they sign into Sakai, and sign out
of other resources if they sign out of Sakai.

Thanks!
