There isn't any direct support at this stage. We don't use acegi by =
default, but there is some sandbox code to try it if they happens to =
make this easier. I would think it is better to directly provide an =
authentication handler for CAS in Redback though.

We can certainly help point you in the right direction if that's =
something you want to embark on.
