EDIT 02/15/09LDAP Authentication with local admin. This is the easiest way to get your newly installation of Alfresco authenticating against Active directory just by renaming one file, editing another one and making a change to your active directory Adminstrator's account.Step 1: Rename ldap-authen

Re: SOLVED - LDAP Basics - Help and posible HOW TO discussion

mrojas73 — Fri, 17 Oct 2008 02:40:46 GMT

Finally got basic LDAP authentication to work, and here are the basics:

I am running Alfresco Labs3 on windows XP for testing
LDAP server is a Windows 2003 Standard

Step 1: Modify the file called ldap-authentication.properties. this is the path for the files in my installation: C:\Alfresco\tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco\extension
Note: the file only appears as ldap-authentication in the windows folder, make sure you don't save it as a xml file or anything else. Use notepad to modify it, the file below is working for me:

#
# This properties file brings together the common options for LDAP authentication rather than editing the bean definitions
#

# How to map the user id entered by the user to taht passed through to LDAP
# - simple 
#    - this must be a DN and would be something like
#      CN=%s,DC=company,DC=com
# - digest
#    - usually pass through what is entered
#      %s     
ldap.authentication.userNameFormat=%s

# The LDAP context factory to use
ldap.authentication.java.naming.factory.initial=com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory

# The URL to connect to the LDAP server 
ldap.authentication.java.naming.provider.url=ldap://my-dcprd-01:389

# The authentication mechanism to use
ldap.authentication.java.naming.security.authentication=SIMPLE

# The default principal to use (only used for LDAP sync)
ldap.authentication.java.naming.security.principal=administrator

# The password for the default principal (only used for LDAP sync)
ldap.authentication.java.naming.security.credentials=**********

# Escape commas entered by the user at bind time
# Useful when using simple authentication and the CN is part of the DN and contains commas
ldap.authentication.escapeCommasInBind=false

# Escape commas entered by the user when setting the authenticated user
# Useful when using simple authentication and the CN is part of the DN and contains commas, and the escaped \, is 
# pulled in as part of an LDAP sync
# If this option is set to true it will break the default home folder provider as space names can not contain \
ldap.authentication.escapeCommasInUid=false‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Step 2: Now, rename the file ldap-authentication-context.xml.sample to ldap-authentication-context.xml, DO NOT MAKE ANY CHANGES to this file. That's what has been hurting me for weeks. I was lucky to find a post somewhere that showed this configuration.

Step 3: Restart alfresco and login using one of accounts from Active Directory, remember that you won't be able to login using the builtin admin account until you get chaining-authentication working.

There is a great xml editor program that can help editing xml files called Open XML editor http://www.philo.de/xmledit/, or you can use Open Office, or notepad for that matter.

My next task is to tackle chaining-authentication. I hope this helps some one, I will be testing on OpenLDAP and Ubuntu installs as soon as I figure the rest of the basics out, I want to know how to authenticate to different spaces, and tenants.

Thank your for your time.

Hello -

I've been following this discussion, it is a great example of the open source community spirit in action! Marco, just a reminder that you can give Belmekki points for all of his help (you may have already done this).

I would also encourage you to add your findings to the LDAP page http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Enterprise_Security_and_Authentication_Configuration in the wiki or create a new page.

Thanks!

Nancy

I am about writing a guide to get stable Alfresco with AD, CHAINING and NTLM .

I've some problems with CIFS AD & NTLM. I've seen lot of posts about some problem with CIFS in Alfresco 3 series.
Do you integrate in your guide "a howto CIFS in alfresco 3" ?
So i could follow step by step the " config rules" to get CIFS OK
- Perhaps, i've forgot something in the config with alfresco 3 (With Alfresco 2.1 CIFS is OK for me)

hi
i still have issues with my ldap configuration…
in the old days i used a cms called tikiwiki.

these are the values i used for a sucsessful ldap bind in tikiwiki:

auth_ldap_memberattr   uniqueMember
auth_ldap_memberisdn   n
auth_ldap_scope   one
auth_ldap_userattr   uid
auth_ldap_basedn   ou=People,o=DC=company,DC=com
auth_ldap_url   ldaps://ldap.company.com

can anybody tell me how to configure alfresco to use the users uid and not the cn ?

thank you,
philipp

thank you,
philipp

Belkin,

I have spent countless hours trying to get the chaining configuration working, I have searched the web up and down and always land on your posts. Like I have stated before, LDAP works great in Labs 3 just by modifying the ldap-authentication.properties file and renaming ldap-authentication-context.xml.sample to ldap-authentication-context.xml. I can login using any of my Active Directory users.

Chaining though is a beast on its own, I don't see where the chaining sample file has anything with regards to LDAP. Not a single file I have found has worked, and wen I do manage to start up Alfresco I get some weird errors when trying to log in.

Here is my current chaining-authentication-contect.xml file which doesn't work (errors will be posted below)

Thank you for all the help Belmekki, if I could I would buy you lunch!

I think that I am getting close to making this thing work. Now I can start up Alfresco and login using the admin account fine, just when I try to login using a LDAP account i get some red text. I will keep troubleshooting and will post a solution if i come up with one.

Take care and I really appreciate all your help.

Marco.

Hello, I've managed to get Alfresco 3.0 talking to my LDAP server for authentication. I can log in as any LDAP user. The problems arise when any user attempts to edit their profile after logging in, such as setting an email address. Upon hitting the "Save Changes" button, the user is greeted with the following error message:

Failed to load script '/org/alfresco/components/profile/userprofile.post.json.js (in classpath store file:/opt/alfresco/tomcat/webapps/share/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/site-webscripts)': Wrapped org.alfresco.error.AlfrescoRuntimeException: Unable to save user details: Remote error during User save: Server returned HTTP response code: 500 for URL: http://localhost:8080/alfresco/s/slingshot/profile/userprofile?alf_ticket=TICKET_5630f74a414f427fdee886c05e52a2e50eedd227 (AlfrescoScript#43)

Any thoughts? This is kind of a show-stopper for us. Thanks in advance.

THIS IS THE BEST POST EVER!!

I am up and running authenticating against AD because of this post!!! :mrgreen:

I agree entirely with rbone100…. this topic (and to a lesser extent this topic - http://forums.alfresco.com/en/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=15298) have solved my authentication issues!

why is this information not in the wiki?

Good question! The wiki is editable by anyone who registers - it's a community resource.

BELMEKKI,

Thank a ton, I was successful in LDAP Authentication after reading your post. But i have a problem with CIFS, it won't connect anymore after making the changes to ldap-authentication.properties and renaming authentication-context.xml.sample. I am using Labs Stable.

Kindly assist.

Hi,
I am a beginner to Alfresco and followed step by step the instructions to setup the AD authentication from mrojas73.
So far I am able to authenticate against my AD controller but only on the Alfresco web page.
My alfresco.log still shows the following errors:
14:43:59,341 ERROR [org.alfresco.smb.protocol] Failed to get local domain/workgroup name, using default of WORKGROUP
14:43:59,342 ERROR [org.alfresco.smb.protocol] (This may be due to firewall settings or incorrect <broadcast> setting)
14:43:59,671 ERROR [org.alfresco.smb.protocol.auth] No valid CIFS authentication combination available
14:43:59,671 ERROR [org.alfresco.smb.protocol.auth] Either enable Kerberos support or use an authentication component that supports MD4 hashed passwords
14:43:59,706 ERROR [org.alfresco.smb.protocol] CIFS server configuration error, Invalid CIFS authenticator configuration
org.alfresco.error.AlfrescoRuntimeException: Invalid CIFS authenticator configuration

The file I changed after the fresh install was /opt/Alfresco/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/ldap-authentication.properties to fit my AD controller and I cp ldap-authentication-context.xml.sample ldap-authentication-context.xml. Thats all.

I forgot to mention that I use the package Alfresco-Labs-3Stable-Linux-x86-Install under Centos.

Thanks for your help,
Kibeki

hi there…

I have configured my CIFS and, after run alfresco, the following messages just disapear from the log:

ERROR [org.alfresco.smb.protocol] Failed to get local domain/workgroup name, using default of WORKGROUP
ERROR [org.alfresco.smb.protocol] (This may be due to firewall settings or incorrect <broadcast> setting)

After that, I did configured the ldap-authentication.properties and the ldap-synchronisation.properties with fields that I use in ApacheDirectoryStudio to conect to my ldap (and it works).
But when I run the alfresco again, I get the exception:

18:17:52,114 ERROR [org.alfresco.smb.protocol.auth] No valid CIFS authentication combination available

Any of you know how to get throw this? Is this the result of inconsistent fields?
(I did find this too: https://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/ALFCOM-1820?actionOrder=desc)

Please help
