SAML for SharePoint 2010 Authentication

Is it possible to authenticate a user in SharePoint 2010 using a SAML Token provided by third-party?

Most of the examples of SSO configuration for SP2010 assume that you are going to use Active Directory as your user repository. I do not want to setup ADFS, since all of my users are actually out on a SAML compatible Jasig CAS server.

Any ideas?

Thanks for the help!

You would need to implement a custom authentication provider to make this work without ADFS. See http://www.rightpointconsulting.com/community/blogs/viewpoint/archive/2010/09/02/configuring-custom-providers-using-sharepoint-2010-claims-based-authentication.aspx
