Re: [Hypercontent-users] How to read groups.xml from the CAS server.

[Alex V. <al...@bi...>]

If you check the headers with the firefox plugin I suggested, you can  
see which redirects the browser is actually following.  I believe  
ajax requests can carry cookies.

However, feel free to take another approach as you see fit.
