Alfresco 3.2 - Can't mount CIFS drives under OSX

Hello,
I have a strange behavior using Alfresco 3.2
I can't manage to mount the drive under osx using CIFS share. Using Finder, I get the username / password request, and folder choice, but it does not mount and times out.
Got the same issue with osx 10.5.8, now using snow leopard 10.6

Using a Vista Virtual Machine on the mac, I can mount the drives without a problem.

Any idea regarding this?

Her is my Alfresco config regarding this :

cifs.tcpipSMB.platforms=linux,solaris,macosx
cifs.netBIOSSMB.platforms=linux,solaris,macosx
cifs.enabled=true
cifs.Server.Name=alfresco
cifs.domain=workgroup
cifs.hostanounce=true
cifs.broadcast=192.168.1.255
cifs.tcpipSMB.port=1445
cifs.ipv6.enabled=false
cifs.netBIOSSMB.namePort=1137
cifs.netBIOSSMB.datagramPort=1138
cifs.netBIOSSMB.sessionPort=1139

The alfresco server is running on a Ubuntu Linux Server, ports forwarding are done using iptables to the unprivilegied ports specified above.

Does some1 have an idea?

Have you filed a bug report regarding this?

I just checked my log files and this appears to be the error message connected to this issue:

Hello all,
sorry for no updates.
Tested with latest nightly build, same issue.
Can't log properly with a mac osx machine in 10.5.8 or 10.6, no probs with a Win xx Machine.
Any idea?

Hi,

it works without special tweaking for me.

I'm using :

Alfresco 3.2.0 CE (2039)
tomcat 6.0.26
mysql 5.0.90
Gentoo Linux

Mac OS X 10.6.3

Tomcat is running under user tomcat, Portforwarding is enabled (see http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/File_Server_Configuration#Running_SMB.2FCIFS_from_a_normal_user_accoun... )


On Mac I connect with the finder, no manual mount.
