My solution is like the following:
I have a system called Central
, in which I manage the users and their passwords using Devise
, Ruby-CAS-Server
system performs the authentication against this database, and CanCan
and Ruby-CAS-Client
is used to manage the authorizations and authentication.
And I have several other systems, for example called Satellite
, which authenticates using CAS and only have a simple User
Class to hold the properties coming from CAS after authentication, and CanCan
to manage authorizations, and no Devise
is used.
