We do exactly the same, calling into our portal as described below, with one
additional parameter for logging, the ip address of the ezproxy client, as
in:
::External=https://[Link to your script file],post=user=^u&ip=^i
We are running ezproxy 5.2
Good luck,

Curtis,
We use EZProxy with CAS and had a similar problem understanding how EZProxy
was getting group information. What we ended up doing was using CAS to
handle authentication and used an external script to handle group membership
checking.
We are on EZProxy 5.1.
My config in user.txt is:
::CAS,File=scriptFile.txt
LoginURL https://[Our CAS login URL]
ServiceValidateURL https://[Our CAS service validate URL]
/CAS
Then in scriptFile.txt which you put in the same directory as user.txt, you
set it up similar to the info on
http://www.oclc.org/us/en/support/documentation/ezproxy/usr/external.htm
Ours looks like:
::External=https://[Link to your script file],post=user=^u,valid=+OK
This posts the user name only, not the password to the script and since our
group membership is handled by Active Directory, I check AD for this user's
group membership and then either write out "+OK" if I have determined that
this person may access the system or anything else will deny them access.
HTH,
Kris

Subject: [cas-user] Casifying Exproxy
Just wondering how many people are using ezproxy with cas? I'm looking
at configuring it to authenticate with cas. I read the following
document at
http://www.oclc.org/us/en/support/documentation/ezproxy/usr/cas.htm
and am a bit confused where their group information is coming from.
