CIFS server configuration error, Wrong authentication setup

Hi,I have integrated Alfresco v1.4 and v2.0 with LDAP. It worked well almost, except following error. 19031 [main] ERROR org.alfresco.smb.protocol - CIFS server configuration error, Wrong authentication setup for alfresco authenticatororg.alfresco.error.AlfrescoRuntimeException: Wrong authenticati

As I known, there are two options.

1) change ./alfresco/extension/file-servers-custom.xml to have the following:

<config evaluator="string-compare" condition="Filesystem Security" replace="true">

<authenticator type="passthru">

   <Server>your.ldap.server</Server>

</authenticator>

2) when authenticating with LDAP, it would be better to disable CIFS and FTP services. After that, error message should be disappeared. In general, there is only one step to disable them. Comment CIFS server and FTP server in alfresco/Bootstrap-context.xml as follows.
<!– CIFS Server –>

<!– bean id="fileServerConfiguration" class="org.alfresco.filesys.server.config.ServerConfiguration" parent="fileServerConfigurationBase">
       <property name="configService">
           <ref bean="fileServersConfigService"/>
       </property>
    </bean –>

    <!– bean id="cifsServer" class="org.alfresco.filesys.CIFSServer" destroy-method="stopServer">
        <constructor-arg>
           <ref local="fileServerConfiguration"/>
        </constructor-arg>
    </bean –>

<!– FTP Server –>

    <!– bean id="ftpServer" class="org.alfresco.filesys.FTPServer" destroy-method="stopServer">
        <constructor-arg>
           <ref local="fileServerConfiguration"/>
        </constructor-arg>
    </bean –>
