i've read the new doc on installing the stable release of alfresco 3 at http://wiki.alfresco.com/w/images/a/a1/Install_Configure_Alfresco_Lab3Final.pdf and it looks promising. Now downloading the files and can't wait to install. Thanks to the team for the nice & detail technical info.

The new documentation for Labs 3 stable is nicer but I can't get chaining to work either. I get Tomcat error 404 as soon as a enable chaining.

I am using Windows 2003 AD and Labs 3 stable. LDAP authentication is fine but I need to be able to use the local admin for the different tenant administration.
Adding an user from active directory as an administrator in custom-authority-services-context.xml doesn't allow it administer tenants.

This guy has a nice post that might work using openldap but I haven't tried it, here is a link: http://nix.theism.de/alfresco-authentication-with-openldap-on-debian-etch/

So, if someone smarter than us knows how to make this work….let us know how to do it. I will be very much appreciated.

Thank you.
