Yes CAS 2 is a standard authentication module for Nuxeo.

You can chain several authentication mechanisms, but it may not work for all of them, especially those that redirect you to another login page (in which case to which one do we redirect?).

So unless one of the SSO can be taught to work with the other (and this would be outside of the scope of Nuxeo), I don't see how that can work.

Je suis d'accord avec cette conclusion, mais l'espoir fait vivre ....

Maybe you could configure the redirect of the CAS server in a specific way.

Another solution would be to develop an extension of Nuxeo that proposes to chose the authentication mode as a first step. THis is not implemented today.

Yes, it will be a possible solution (perhaps ..)

This solution seems to be better than redirect CAS server ....
