Hi, all,

it would make more sense to allow the user to change password (with some kind 
of rule, such as password Complexity) in CAS. Otherwise, SSO is still not 
single in some sense. Is it possible this can be implemented in a fast fashion?

The current version definitely will turn off a lots of potential users who has 
any special requirements (like the locked-out and expired things our system 
needed).

regards,

Lu

Scott,
 
This issue has been on the plate for a long time ( perhaps you embmer me 
harping on this some time back :)
 
What's it going to take to convince you ? :-)

At the moment all I'm saying is that we'll be supporting relaying messages from 
backend systems (i.e. your password expired, account locked, etc.).  
Integration with other systems to change passwords would be a complimentary but 
probably separate system.

That's just my 3 second thought on the matter.  I can probably be convinced 
otherwise :-)

Scott, are you saying that CAS4 will support back end change of password when 
back end reports expiration ( like LDAP) ?

If I had to guess,I'd have to say closer to 3 months.

Scott,

thanks for the info.

When do you think that CS4 will be ready? any possibility in the next month or 
two?

regards,

Lu

We're looking at that for CAS 4 (in fact, its actually in the CAS4 source code) 
though CAS4 clearly isn't ready for production :-)

I think that password expiry is also a policy that should be handled by your 
backend identity system. CAS does not manage the users identity today.

Dale,

thanks for the helpful answer.

So say if we want to implement the 3 strike rule (the DB side to handle the 
logic), and to display some specific message (this message is independent from 
the regular "your password is incorrect" one) when the user login incorrectly 
for more than three times, is it easy to do in CAS? Have you or somebody have 
tried to looked at this implementation? which part of the CAS code should I 
tackle?

Actually we have one more scenario: the password will be expired for every 3 
month. Does CAS has any build-in mechanism to handle it? If modification is 
needed, what necessary steps need to be done? Any example?


regards,

Lu

Regarding point 2.
 
I believe CAS does not provide this lockout feature. It must be implemented in 
the backend authentication system. This makes sense, as any recovery from 
lockout would best be done at your backend credential store. Any login attempt 
count and locked out flag should be stored alongside your valid credentials.
 
Instead of lockout we use an increasing response delay every time a 
user gets the password wrong. This makes brute force attacks impractical, while 
still allowing someone who knows the password to get in. This delay is enforced 
by the backend authenticator, not by CAS.

Hi, all,

I am new to CAS. Here is my question:
1. We have a customized encoding java class to encode the password (and this 
encrypted password is stored in database). Is there anybody can provide a 
concrete example on how to make it happen in configure this encoder?

2. Can CAS handle 3-strike rule? if a user logged in (with good username, but 
wrong password) unsuccessfully for more than 3 times, the user shall be 
displayed with a specific message saying that the account is locked out. Is 
there any generally mechanism already built in CAS to handle this scenario? 
What kind of code/configuration change is needed? 

Any help on the above topic is greatly appreciated!

LU
