Same configuration, different OS (Windows 2003 Server) but same error here. Tried with the various parameters but it doesn't work. Did you get any chance to solve this issue?

Has anyone figured this out yet? I'm having a heck of a time with NTLM + CIFS

Hello,

There was an issue with NTLM and CIFS that crept in during the 1.3 timeframe.
This has been resolved for the 1.3 final.

Hi, Steve,

Could you tell us when 1.3 final will be released?
Is it possible for us to correct it now?

Thanks for you reply.

Best Regards
Frank

Hello,

For hFrank : the final version was released this morning !

But I already have the problem with CIFS and NTLM in the final version .


15:22:47,750 DEBUG [org.alfresco.smb.protocol.auth] NT Session setup from user=XXXXXX, password=d19c5ed3a1d421fc1aa8071cdde94e6a36ae6222a4c02389, ANSIpwd=08ab54cff8771fcd7f3ec1cf2fcc74575e55e2f14a159f21, domain=XXXX, os=Windows 2002 Service Pack 2 2600, VC=0, maxBuf=61440, maxMpx=4, authCtx=[NTLM,Challenge=c89999b8659088c2]

What to do ?
Thanks .

Hi,
I tested the final version also. Unfortunately it does not work as you tried.
In order to make sure <authenticator> in the file-servers.xml corrrect , I changed the <authenticator> from <authenticator type="alfresco"> to :


 <authenticator type="paththru"><Server>Domain controller ip</Server></authenticator>
‍‍‍

But when restarting alfresco, the following error occurred:


12:52:48,319 ERROR [org.alfresco.smb.protocol] File server configuration error, Wrong authentication setup for passthru authenticator
org.alfresco.error.AlfrescoRuntimeException: Wrong authentication setup for passthru authenticator

   at org.alfresco.filesys.server.config.ServerConfiguration.onApplicationEvent(ServerConfiguration.java:420)
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Any ideas?

Thanks
Frank

It's "passthru" not "paththru" .

Edit : Even with "passthru" I can't open the folder…

"Access denied", "sts disallow via passthru" .

Nobody has a solution ?

Re: CIFS and NTLM configuration

hfrank — Thu, 29 Jun 2006 09:47:18 GMT

Sure, it is passthru.
And also, i added the following lines:


<accessControl default="None">
  <protocol type="CIFS" access="Write"/>
  <user name="me" access="Write"/>
</accessControl>
‍‍‍‍‍‍

The world keeps unchanged.

Someone from developpers can help us ?

I'd like to install Alfreco 1.3.0 on a server next week, but if CIFS doesn't work, I'll have to install the 1.2.1 version.

Thanks .

Re: CIFS and NTLM configuration

hfrank — Fri, 30 Jun 2006 01:35:35 GMT

hi, LC
Do you mean you can configure CIFS+NTLM under 1.2.1 but not under 1.3 ?

Re: CIFS and NTLM configuration

Hello,

This issue has been fixed for 1.3E

Thanks, but I have the final release 1.3.0.

Will the problem be corrected in the community release ?

Please ?

Re: CIFS and NTLM configuration

It seems the bug fix pace of community Edition is slower than the Enterprise Edition. So we decided to pay for the Enterprise Network edition.

Hi,

I've been following this post to see if I could resolve the same issue. I'm currently using the latest Alfresco release for Tomcat (alfresco-community-tomcat-1.4.ODF-Build54.tar.gz) and am still having the same issues with CIFS passthru authentication.

Re: CIFS and NTLM configuration

kevinr — Thu, 10 Aug 2006 09:51:34 GMT

Appologies, I have been informed that the bug fix was merged into the HEAD codeline after the latest ODF release. I can confirm that the fix is definitely in the SVN HEAD today.

The file you are interesting in is:
org.alfresco.filesys.server.auth.ntlm.AlfrescoAuthenticator

It can be obtained and built from SVN.

Thanks,

Kevin
