Hello,
I am trying to install Alfresco 2.1 with CIFS on Windows Vista. These are the steps that I have executed:
1. Copied Win32NetBIOS.dll to c:\windows\system32
2. Change file-servers.xml in <ALFRESCO_HOME>\tomcat\webapps\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco and added the following lines to this file:
<config evaluator="string-compare" condition="CIFS Server">
<serverEnable enabled="true"/>
<host name="${localname}_A"/>
<comment>Alfresco CIFS Server</comment>
<!– Set to the broadcast mask for the subnet –>
<broadcast>255.255.255.255</broadcast>
<hostAnnounce interval="5"/>
<!– Use Win32 NetBIOS interface on Windows –>
<Win32NetBIOS api="winsock"/>
<Win32Announce interval="5"/>
<sessionDebug flags="Negotiate,Socket"/>
</config>
I have then restarted Alfresco and when I execute the command:
nbtstat -n
I see in the NetBIOS table the name that refers to ${localname}_A. I then use
net use ${localname}_A
to connect to the share. The login prompt is displayed, but the login fails always. When I look at the Alfresco logs, I see there the error message:
17:12:09,010 ERROR [smb.protocol.auth] org.alfresco.filesys.smb.server.SMBSrvException: Invalid device type for dialect
Does anyone have an idea what the meaning of this error message is and if yes, how this can be fixed?
Kind regards,
Gil Fernandes
