I was trying to set up a sensor to monitor CAS login system. Can't seem to figure it out. I tried using HTTP Transaction sensor. Any help will be much appreciated!
ADFS + CAS

The problem is that the HTTP sensors cannot handle redirects at this time. We have a Powershell script here that we wrote to allow you to monitor 2013 exchange with a redirect so you may be able to adapt this to your purposes but the standard HTTP sensors in PRTG will not work.
<scriptname> -hostname "<server>" -user "<user as domain\username>" -password "<password>"
Param(
[string]$hostname,
[string]$username, # as 'domain\username'
[string]$password,
[boolean]$test = $false
)
if ($test) {
. $env:HOMEPATH\testcred.ps1
}
$destination="https://$($hostname)/owa/";
$response = '';
$postParams = @{
destination="$destination";
flags='0';
forcedownlevel='0';
trusted='0'
username="$($username)";
password="$($password)";
isUtf8='1'
}
$url = "$($destination)auth.owa"
$response = Invoke-WebRequest -uri $url -Method POST -body $postParams
if ($response.content.Contains('Try entering it again')) {
write-host 'password failed or Exchange2010'
} elseif ($response.content.Contains('Connected to Microsoft Exchange')) {
write-host '1:success'
} else {
write-host '0:failed'
}

What kind of a login is this and how do you have the sensor set up? Most form Authentication methods won't work with that or any other sensor in PRTG but basic, NTLM and some form authentication methods will work if they are POST data based.

Are you trying to monitor 2010 Exchange or 2013?
