CIFS issues with folder

coyoteugly — Wed, 13 Feb 2013 09:10:54 GMT

Hi to all. Using Alfresco 4.2.c installed on an Ubuntu 12.04 server I configured the CIFS protocol using the following settings on the /alfresco/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco-global.properties file:### CIFS ###cifs.enabled=truecifs.serverName=${localname}Acifs.hostannounce=truecifs.tcpipSMB.port=14

Nothing about this?
I continued to study the problem, and I found that if I log-in in Alfresco as a Domain admin, I have no issue using CIFS.
Is this a problem of File System or permission?
Thanks.

***UPDATE***
After varius tests, summarizing:
Alfresco version 4.2.c installed on a Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. I configured my alfresco-global.properties file using the configuration line in my first post. After I used the following lines to configure IPTABLE:
root@dms:~# iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp –dport 445 -j REDIRECT –to-ports 1445
root@dms:~# iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp –dport 139 -j REDIRECT –to-ports 1139
root@dms:~# iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p udp -m udp –dport 137 -j REDIRECT –to-ports 1137
root@dms:~# iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p udp -m udp –dport 138 -j REDIRECT –to-ports 1138
It seems to work for me.

Anyway I found some trouble: Using a Windows Vista x32 client and a Windows 7 x64 client I CAN'T RENAME FILE AND DIRECTORY, and I CAN'T MOVE FILE INTO FOLDER using for example drag-and-drop.

*If I try to rename, windows return an error such as "The directory \\server\Alfresco\path\path1\path2… does non exist. Is possible that the file has been moved or deleted." . Related to this, if I create a new document is not possible to assign a custom name, but I can only use the windows standard name "Document1" or "New folder".
*If I try to move a file using drag and drop, the classic window "Moving 1 item (TOT KB) from \path1 to \path2" appears, but even for a really small file, this window never expires and the file is never moved.

I also tried using an ubuntu client and a windows 8 client, and I didn' found any trouble.

Please, any stuff about this?
Is it a bug? A server misconfiguration? A client misconfiguration?

Thanks a lot.
