That's quite nice. I would comment that Eric's "screen scraping" script
against the login URI is probably a better test than my prior suggestion
to use the CAS RESTful interface, since it is hypothetically possible
for the RESTful interface to be up, but the login URI to be
malfunctioning (although I'm guessing that this is a low probability
failure mode). The tradeoff is that you have to screen scrape...

Subject: Re: [cas-user] Monitoring of CAS
We use the following script to test CAS:
#!/usr/bin/bash
CASURL="https://casserver.example.edu/cas/login";
CASUSERNAME="myuser"
PASSWORD="secret"
# Pull out the ltValue
ltValue=`curl --silent --cookie-jar /tmp/cookieTmp --cookie
/tmp/cookieTmp $CASURL | sed -n 's/.*<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"lt\"
value=\"\(.*\)\" \/>.*/\1/p'`
# Submit ltValue, username, password to login page
loginResponse=`curl --silent --cookie-jar /tmp/cookieTmp
--cookie /tmp/cookieTmp $CASURL -d "username=$CASUSERNAME" -d
"password=$PASSWORD" -d "_eventId=submit" -d "lt=$ltValue" -L`
if [[ "$loginResponse" =~ "Log In Successful" ]]; then
echo "Success"
else
echo "Failure"
fi
# Remove cookie store
rm /tmp/cookieTmp

Dear All,
CAS 3.3.1, RHEL 5.3, Tomcat 5
We have groundwork which sits on top of Nagios. What I
need to be able to do is monitor the ability to authenticate to CAS
through a command line script. Has anyone done this? Does anyone have
any pointers?
I have found soapUI which looks like it may be able to
do this for me but it needs a WSDL file which I am not familiar with.
Any help would be very appreciated.
Yours sincerely
David Ruwoldt
