I didn't see a response, and when I looked at the nabble archives I couldn't
see my previous email (though it was in my outbox in outlook) so I just
reposted, assuming that my email had been lost.  

I don't have much control over CAS A or B, just control over CAS C, which my
application is protected with.  CAS A is our sungaurd uportal front end, and
CAS B is a home grown departmental front end.  My CAS client (protecting app
C) could forward them to one of the other CAS systems, but I don't want them
to have to authenticate institutionally if they are just using my
application.  In particular, the institutional authentication may not have
all of the users that my local cas system might.
