Hi, CAS doesn't have that feature out of the box. Though, I think you could achieve that by creating the appropriate handler : it would take the Admin credentials as well as the username to impersonate.
The main challenge and concern here is security, as this mecanism is extremely powerful. If I can trick it, I could be anyone. The level of security requested for the Admin user should be higher than for a regular user : IP filtering or one-time password code could be extra checks (in addition to login/pwd) to mitigate risks.
