Phillip, 

"Awful lots of choices" is an understatement.  But the first step should
start with an assessment of where you are today (I am sure you have done
that). Are you an AD shop or not? What are the key systems you are trying to
add to the SSO infrastructure and what SSO platform do they support ­
natively? Your level of internal expertise (or availability of external
support/ resources)?

Per SAML and CAS; CAS actually supports SAML as do a tone of other
platforms, including MS FILM.

BTW : Goodluck with your project.

We are preparing to make some decisions around Single Sign-On for our campus
and are looking at SAML and CASŠ..

Does anyone have suggestions or recommendations on which route to go, and if
there are a good set of SSO management and implementation tools out there.
I've done a quick Google search and there is an awful lot of choices for
SSO.

Thanks.
