[jserrano]

Hi,

I have configured Alfresco Enterprise 3.1.1 with passthru autentication but I get the exception when users access to CIFS way \\serverA

There is a bug?

I have proved the community version 3.2, alfresco labs 3 and enterprise 3.1.1 and obtain the same issue. I think that not have a stable solution.

Thanks in advanced.

I have proved the community version 3.2, alfresco labs 3 and enterprise 3.1.1 and obtain the same issue. I think that not have a stable solution.

It is necessary means to look a code and to search for the reason

i have some problems with cifs and kerberos, but i fix it and all work normall. tomorrow i will config my alfresco  with passthru autentication  and  check up working capacity cifs.
