             Summary: Single sign-on to OFBiz with CAS
                 Key: OFBIZ-6963
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-6963
             Project: OFBiz
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: ALL APPLICATIONS
    Affects Versions: Trunk
            Reporter: james yong


OFBiz is made up of several web applications.
To allow the user to sign in only once, a unique token value is presented for verification each time the user navigates to an unvisited web application.

This approach has the following limitations:
1) You cannot work with multiple windows, as there is only 1 valid token value at any time and other token values will be invalid in older-opened windows.
2) There is a need to refresh the whole page, so that all links will contain the valid token value.
3) Not easy to compose a page that get contents from different web applications in OFBiz

Adding CAS SSO component as a core into OFBiz will remove the limitations mentioned above.
