i've been beating my head against my keyboard trying to get my Alfresco to LDAP authenticate against my OSX server. its running mountain lion server, but shouldn't be too much different from your Lion server… but yet, i cannot get it to use the local OSX server for authentication…

i suspect i'm doing something wrong, as i'm not even getting any sort of debug logging for the authentication attempt. everything you posted i did, other than changing the domain info to the appropriate settings for my server…

any ideas?

I have the same problem. I'm using the latest alfresco community 4.2b, tried it on 4.2a also. Probably I'm doing it all wrong.

I have just set up a dev environment for mountain lion server so will test over the next week.

OK, I tried copying my configuration from Alfresco 4.0d over to 4.2 but can't get it to authenticate. Will continue to work on this and report back.
