I would suggest an authentication chain containing the passthru subsystem for authentication and the ldap-ad subsystem for synchronization. You will get NTLM SSO and CIFS authentication against the domain server by default.

Just set the following in alfresco-global.properties

authentication.chain=passthru1assthru,ldap1:ldap-ad
ldap.authentication.active=false
passthru.authentication.domain=# Intentionally left blank
passthru.authentication.servers=DOMAIN\\domaincontroller.com,domaincontroller.com
passthru.authentication.defaultAdministratorUserNames=Administrator
ldap.authentication.java.naming.provider.url=ldap://domaincontroller.com:389
ldap.synchronization.java.naming.security.principal=alfresco@domain
ldap.synchronization.java.naming.security.credentials=secret
ldap.synchronization.groupSearchBase=ou=Security Groups,ou=Alfresco,dc=domain
ldap.synchronization.userSearchBase=ou=User Accounts,ou=Alfresco,dc=domain

I would recommend taking a v3.3 nightly build or building from HEAD, as a number of improvements have been made since the v3.2 Community release.

See http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Alfresco_Authentication_Subsystems for a guide to all these parameters and their meanings.

Hi dward and thanks for your post.

I configured my alfresco with your tips and worked fine.
One more question, if I want to use CIFS I need to add alfrescoNTLM1:alfrescoNTLM to authentication.chain in alfresco-global.properties? I need to change anything in file-servers.properties? I'm asking this because I'm getting:


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

One more time, thanks. Waiting for an answer…

No. Like I said

You will get NTLM SSO and CIFS authentication against the domain server by default.

When running on Linux, or with the Windows native code disabled, you will need to tell the CIFS server your domain name. Try this in alfresco-global.properties

cifs.domain=YOURDOMAIN

I did the below config but once i try to authenticate I received the following error:
"The remote server may be unavailable or your authentication details have not been recognized."

Please advice and help,
I need to see the authentication log to determine the problem.

Re: Active Direcory & Alfresco

dward — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 10:43:37 GMT

What do you see in alfresco.log?

Re: Active Direcory & Alfresco

luisg — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 11:00:43 GMT

ok

Now I dont have the erros. But I tried to test with:


smbclient \\\\localname\\alfresco -U user_from_ad
‍‍‍

and get a 'session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE'

I also tried smbclient \\\\localnameA\\alfresco -U user_from_ad and get Connection to localnameA failed (Error NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME)

What is missing?

Re: Active Direcory & Alfresco

dward — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 11:05:27 GMT

The Alfresco share has a capital A.

Try with and without domain prefixes on the user name, e.g. -U 'DOMAIN\user'

Re: Active Direcory & Alfresco

luisg — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 11:27:39 GMT

It's not workin :shock:

my machine name is alfresco
my machine user is alfresco
the user in Active directory is alfresco
my domain is test.pt

So, to try the CIFS I did:
smbclient \\\\alfrescoA\\alfresco -U alfresco
and I get Connection to alfrescoA failed (Error NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME)

with:
smbclient \\\\alfrescoA\\alfresco -U test.pt\alfresco
I get: Connection to alfrescoA failed (Error NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME)

I think he cant find the server. If I do:
smbclient \\\\alfresco\\alfresco -U alfresco
he ask me for a password, but not the local machine pass or the AD pass works and I get allways:
session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE

wtf?!

Re: Active Direcory & Alfresco

dward — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 11:29:44 GMT

Please do not swear. I told you the share name has a capital A. And you need to escape or quote backslashes.

Try

smbclient \\\\alfrescoA\\Alfresco -U alfresco
smbclient \\\\alfrescoA\\Alfresco -U test.pt\\alfresco
smbclient \\\\alfresco\\Alfresco -U alfresco

Re: Active Direcory & Alfresco

luisg — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 13:14:10 GMT

hi and thanks.
This is probably something in my configuration:

smbclient \\\\alfrescoA\\Alfresco -U alfresco –> Connection to alfrescoA failed (Error NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME);
smbclient \\\\alfrescoA\\Alfresco -U test.pt\\alfresco –> Connection to alfrescoA failed (Error NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME)
smbclient \\\\alfresco\\Alfresco -U alfresco –> session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE (after enter password)

This means that the share is not working. He don't even find alfrescoA.

Man, thanks a lot for spending time with me. I'm going try to find some tips, to get this work.

Hi all…
Finally I can get it work, and was something I was doing wrong…
I had samba server running, After I stop that server, all worked fine with:

smbclient \\\\alfrescoA\\Alfresco -U alfresco

One more time thanks, and sorry for your time spent.

I find it useful to always use netstat, lsof, or similar command to check to see what ports are in use on the system in question. With the default config of CIFS ports 445,137,138,139 are used, or with altrenate ports in many of the wiki examples of 1445, 1137, 1138, 1139. These alternate ports then are NATed with ipchains or ipfw.

If none of these ports are in use you most likely have an issue with alfresco configuration (file-servers-custom.xml, alfresco-global.properties). If they are in use make sure the process is correct, and not nmb or other service that would conflict with your configuration.

Once you are sure your ports are up and running correctly, then use smbclient etc to test.

adnan_douglas — Thu, 10 Sep 2009 10:40:52 GMT

I test the above configuration but there is no change.
I checked Alfresco log and I found Authentication failed.
.
I edited alfresco-global.properties file and passthru-authentication-context.properties file.

Please advice

Re: Active Direcory & Alfresco

dward — Thu, 10 Sep 2009 10:44:39 GMT

Please do not edit any files under WEB-INF. They are part of the product and this is not the correct way to configure alfresco.

Just set the following in alfresco-global.properties, obviously customizing for your setup

authentication.chain=passthru1assthru,ldap1:ldap-ad
ldap.authentication.active=false
passthru.authentication.domain=# Intentionally left blank
passthru.authentication.servers=DOMAIN\\domaincontroller.com,domaincontroller.com
passthru.authentication.defaultAdministratorUserNames=Administrator
ldap.authentication.java.naming.provider.url=ldap://domaincontroller.com:389
ldap.authentication.userNameFormat=%s@domain
ldap.synchronization.java.naming.security.principal=alfresco@domain
ldap.synchronization.java.naming.security.credentials=secret
ldap.synchronization.groupSearchBase=ou=Security Groups,ou=Alfresco,dc=domain
ldap.synchronization.userSearchBase=ou=User Accounts,ou=Alfresco,dc=domain
cifs.domain=DOMAIN

What errors are you seeing in the logs?

Re: Active Direcory & Alfresco

adnan_douglas — Thu, 10 Sep 2009 11:03:03 GMT

What do u mean in the follwoing:

passthru.authentication.domain=# Intentionally left blank I have to leave it blabk
passthru.authentication.servers=DOMAIN i have to insert my domain name\\domaincontroller.com,domaincontroller.com
ldap.synchronization.java.naming.security.principal=alfresco@domain
ldap.synchronization.java.naming.security.credentials=secret
ldap.synchronization.groupSearchBase=ou=Security Groups,ou=Alfresco,dc=domain
ldap.synchronization.userSearchBase=ou=User Accounts,ou=Alfresco,dc=domain

Please advice

Re: Active Direcory & Alfresco

dward — Thu, 10 Sep 2009 11:20:47 GMT

Copy and paste these properties without changing them

authentication.chain=passthru1assthru,ldap1:ldap-ad
ldap.authentication.active=false
passthru.authentication.domain=# Intentionally left blank
passthru.authentication.defaultAdministratorUserNames=Administrator

Set your own values for these properties and read the wiki to find out what they mean.

passthru.authentication.servers=DOMAIN\\domaincontroller.com,domaincontroller.com
ldap.authentication.java.naming.provider.url=ldap://domaincontroller.com:389
ldap.authentication.userNameFormat=%s@domain
ldap.synchronization.java.naming.security.principal=alfresco@domain
ldap.synchronization.java.naming.security.credentials=secret
ldap.synchronization.groupSearchBase=ou=Security Groups,ou=Alfresco,dc=domain
ldap.synchronization.userSearchBase=ou=User Accounts,ou=Alfresco,dc=domain
cifs.domain=DOMAIN

That suggests that you've set passthru.authentication.servers incorrectly

Open a DOS command prompt and type

echo %USERDOMAIN% %LOGONSERVER%

That should give you the values to use in place of DOMAIN and domaincontroller.com
