LDAP + Alfresco Labs 3

sbhatia — Thu, 12 Feb 2009 17:10:46 GMT

I have configured Alfresco Labs 3 with LDAP. Now I would like to know how do we define "admin" user for alfresco in LDAP? The default "admin" user for Alfreco will not work since this user is not setup in ldap. Is there a way to define your own custom admin user in Alfreco?

When your system authenticate users on LDAP, yours internal users will disappear You can configure admin rigths to a LDAP user just putting the username on the section

     <property name="adminUsers">
           <set>
                       <value>admin</value>
                       <value>administrator</value>
                       <value>YOURUSERNAME</value>
           </set>
     </property>

in the file tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/authority-services-context.xml

This works okay unless you need to manage tenants, you get access denied when trying to manage tenants. Unfortunately I don't know the solutions for this, used to be chaining but no clear documentation that I know to implement it on Labs3.
