https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-forum/two-passwords-one-user/m-p/130085#M35192 <P>Our ECM have some alfresco users (about 1000 users) and my boss want me to create same users in AD&nbsp; and sync them with alfresco. I managed to do that but some users have&nbsp; 2 passwords cause their alfresco &nbsp;password does not meet the length, complexity, or history requirement of the domain. I know that when user try to login, alfresco is checking this user's password in her db and if there is no matches then alfresco checks the password in AD</P><P>1)My question is, how to make alfresco to use AD&nbsp; authentication&nbsp;first and not alfresco authentication?</P><P>2)And second question, if it is not possible to do so? Can i reset somehow the password in alfresco database (for example fill that password column with blank string) to force alfresco to use AD authentication? What are my options? Thanks in advance.</P> Wed, 17 Mar 2021 13:21:12 GMT john2994 2021-03-17T13:21:12Z https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-forum/two-passwords-one-user/m-p/130085#M35192 <P>Our ECM have some alfresco users (about 1000 users) and my boss want me to create same users in AD&nbsp; and sync them with alfresco.
