One difference between the XP and Vista debugging info above is in the lines beginning with "[smb.protocol.auth] Allocated UID="…

The XP ones have operating system information in them ("Windows 2002 Service Pack 3 2600") and the Vista ones just have blank fields. Might that be a hint as to the trouble here?

I am in pretty much the same boat.

Alfresco is running on a Centos box, Kerberos auth and SSO works for HTTP, WebDAV and CIFS.

A Windows 2003 client can use CIFS to see \\ALFRESCO\Alfresco (actual server name changed), but a Vista or 2008 client cannot. I can see in the catalina.out log that the Vista/2008 client gets a successful kerberos auth and login, but it doesn't finish connecting to the share.

Given that it is getting a successful kerberos auth and login and a 2003 client can see the shares, I am at a loss as to what I can change/configure on the Alfresco server to allow the Vista/2008 clients to also see the shares.

Help ?!

Further possible clues:

2003 client connects it's workstation MACHINE$ account to IPC before connecting the user, 2008 client doesn't.
2003 client creates 1 VC (Virtual Circuit), 2008 client tries to create 10 VCs

Maybe it's a SMBv2 issue ?
