I've been using CAS as SSO solution in some portal integration projects . CAS 
is a wonderful framework for customzing and integration on different 
client-side frameworks especially in Java environments.

Now I have a customer who whant to integrate different web-applications within 
a single SSO solution. The web-applications are a max of different frameworks,  
partly Java-applicatons (JSP, Struts and so on) and .NET applications.
For SSO the already existing Windows-User per SPNEGO/NTLM should be used (it's 
an Intranet and everybody has a Domain-User in their AD). In most cases the 
AD-roles should be used, too.

So my first idea was: Perfect...use CAS and the SPNEGO-integration for initial 
authentication and then use only CAS for subsequent authentification-requests.
But does this really make sense?? 
Isn't the Kerberos/NTLM - Token enough for SSO instead of a additional 
SSO-Coolie from CAS?

I think for .NET applications a indirection to CAS is complex, since support 
for NTLM is better then for CAS ;-)
And for Java-applications: Isn't a direct integration of NTLM/SPNEGO into 
Jboss/Tomcat is enough (per Valve/Filter and Loginmodule)

So my question is:
What is a really useful scenario for using NTLM/SPNEGO integration in CAS 
especially if a subsequent request to the AD has to be done after succesful 
authentication ? (eg. for for getting user details like roles)

Thanks to everybody giving me a hint!!
