phpBB CAS Authentication plugin

This plugin enables your phpBB forum users to authenticate through a CAS server.

It relies on phpCAS as a backend for the CAS protocol.

Installation

You can install this plugin in a few steps either manually or using AutoMOD.

As a first step, you must install phpCAS. Download it from their GitHub page. Then, install it wherever you want to.

Currently, the plugin looks for phpCAS in a directory called CAS. You may either create a symlink in the includes/auth directory of your phpBB installation or have it installed in your server php setup.

Using AutoMOD

• Download the latest zip package.
• In the AutoMOD tab of the administration panel, upload your package and follow the instructions.

Manually

Download the archive and extract it in your phpbb root directory.

Usage

In your administration panel, under Authentication, select CAS. Then fill your CAS settings (server name, port...) and apply.

Now the login process will take place through CAS.
