I'm trying to get CAS auth working but it is giving problems. Below is my 
setup.

1. Environment is Ubuntu+Apache+Web2py 
2. I have one web2py app that acts as a CAS provider. It exposes a 
controller function and have tried both form=auth.login() and form=auth().
3. I have another web2py app that tries to use the external web2py app CAS 
provider for authentication. Example auth = Auth(db,cas_provider = 
'https://.../default/user_cas/cas')

Problem:
1. When I expose the CAS provider controller function as form=auth() after 
the login the CAS provider is not redirecting the user back to the original 
app.
2. When I expose the CAS provider controller function as form=auth.login() 
then after the login the CAS provider call goes on a too many redirect loop 
and then it breaks with a message in the browser.
3. Interestingly when I try to run the same (CAS provider app and the other 
app that uses the CAS provider app) locally 'http:127.0.0.0' the CAS auth 
and the redirect seem to work fine as expected. 

Here are few discussion thread I found related to the same issue but I 
could not find any final solution for this issue.

Any help on this is much appreciated.

Srini
