I have indeed been trying to get one thing working at a time. Though when I 
get stumped with one thing I will try something else for a little while, 
usually it helps me see things from a different angle. 

I think I understand a little how the management app works. I have plenty 
of experience with uPortal so servlet containers make sense to me. But I'm 
not sure how I'm supposed to spin up this web app along with CAS. I run cas 
through "gradlew run" and I don't know where it's tomcat instance is or if 
I can just drop a war into it's tomcat. So I guess I'm really just unsure 
of how I get both of these running at the same time. Does it work like the 
overlay portlets in uPortal where the management app is basically a 
subproject of CAS? It get's built and deployed along with CAS? I feel like 
there is a lot of assumptions in this documentation about what I know. :\

I'm not sure what the stub entries are for. Is that how I'm supposed to 
link my LDAP account to things like ROLE_ADMIN in CAS? 

I'm don't really know what I'm doing with adminusers.properties. What I'm 
trying to do is say "toben.archer is an admin, give him permission to the 
stuff." but that doesn't seem to be working. Here is my current 
configuration for trying to get access to /status/dashboard:

management.contextPath=/status
management.security.enabled=true
management.security.roles=ACTUATOR,ADMIN
management.security.sessions=if_required

cas.adminPagesSecurity.ip=127\.0\.0\.1
cas.adminPagesSecurity.loginUrl=https://localhost:8443/cas/login
cas.adminPagesSecurity.service=https://localhost:8443/cas/status/dashboard
cas.adminPagesSecurity.users=file:/etc/cas/config/adminusers.properties
cas.adminPagesSecurity.adminRoles[0]=ROLE_ADMIN

cas.adminPagesSecurity.actuatorEndpointsEnabled=true

cas.mgmt.userPropertiesFile=classpath:/adminusers.properties
