Answer 1

You need to replace the in-memory UserDetailsService bean ( userService ) with an LdapUserDetailsService . If you were previously using LDAP for authentication, then the configuration should be pretty much the same, assuming the user name returned by CAS can be easily mapped into the directory.

In more detail: You currently have a bean called userService which is created using the namespace:

<user-service id="userService">
    <user name="rod" password="rod" authorities="ROLE_SUPERVISOR,ROLE_USER" />
    <user name="cpilling04@aol.com.dev" password="testing"
        authorities="ROLE_MEMBER_INQUIRY" />
</user-service>

you need to replace it by one that looks something like this:

<ldap-user-service id="userService" 
    server-ref="yourLdapServer" 
    user-search-base="ou=people"
    user-search-filter="(uid={0})"
    group-search-base="ou=groups"
    group-role-attribute="cn"
    group-search-filter="(member={0})"
    role-prefix="ROLE_" />

but with the various attributes set to match your directory configuration. They should be similar to whatever you had in your <ldap-authentication-provider> configuration before you moved to CAS. You'll also need to declare an <ldap-server> element to point to the directory server. Again that should match what you had before.
