In order to authenticate through the firewall you have to allow kinit
and kerberos web traffic through, which means opening port 88. If you
are unwilling to do that, you need to come up with an authentication
solution that will pass through firewalls, which means either basic
auth, digest, or certificates. IPA has an embeded CA in it (Dogtag) but
does not yet manage user certificates.

The approaches for web only single sign on (OpenID, OAuth, SAML and so
forth) still require the initial authentication. Since IPA doesn't
currently have a solution for that piece, we do not yet support one of
hte HTTP SSO mechanisms, but it is under discussion.

It depends. The FreeIPA SSO is Kerberos-based so you'd need to
provide access to your KDC for this to work. If we're talking
external portal then you may not want to expose your KDC.
It also requires some configuration. Your browser has to be
configured to do Negotiate auth against a given domain. It will
also need to trust the IPA CA (and since CAS seems at least
partially SSL-based you already handle this).
I don't know much about CAS other than what I just read on their
web site but it looks like they handle redirecting when you aren't
authenticated, seemingly allowing a nice way to mix protected and
unprotected data. I think you'd have to do much of this
configuration yourself in Apache. Probably not a huge amount of
work though.
So it is basically whatever mod_auth_kerb provides.
