There is no need for office on the server.

How do you intend authenticating?

What does mean this? (Some problems to understand) I can't use ldap authentication if i want to use sharepoint protocol? Else if, can I use WebDav?

@nancy,

If you are going to change the registry keys it would be on the client computer, NOT the server. You shouldn't need to change them anyway.

If your using ldap to authenticate (via sharepoint protocol) make sure that your network firewall allows the communication. You might have to open the port in the firewall that alfresco will be using. (7070) default.

For the most part I've never had to change the registry settings except on a few select laptops.
