Hi all,

I'm trying to do something which should be simple (I think). I'm trying to set up a stock Alfresco 3.2 (community) server on a Windows Server 2003 host with CIFS/SMB support. These are the customizations that I've added to the alfresco-global.properties file:


#
# CIFS
#————-
cifs.enabled=true
cifs.serverName=alfresco
cifs.domain=MYDOMAIN
cifs.hostannounce=true

#
# Authentication chain
#————-
authentication.chain=passthru1:passthru
passthru.authentication.sso.enabled=true
passthru.authentication.domain=
passthru.authentication.servers=MYDOMAIN\\mycontroller.mydomain.loc,mycontroller.mydomain.loc
passthru.authentication.authenticateCIFS=true
passthru.authentication.authenticateFTP=true
passthru.authentication.defaultAdministratorUserNames=administrator
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Notes (in case it makes any difference):
* SSO (NTLMv1) via the passthru mechanism is working just fine. Logging in with Windows credentials for MYDOMAIN is a snap.
* I control the entire network, including the Domain Controller (they're all VMs on my host)
* "alfresco" is a CNAME alias for the server running Alfresco in the mydomain.loc network
* I have set the SMBDeviceEnabled registry key as described in the File Server Subsystem article[1].

The problem is that Alfresco's SMB service does not seem to be supplanting the Windows native file shares.

I have tried uninstalling Windows SMB support via the network settings options. This causes the WinSock connection attempt to fail and crash the JVM. If I further attempt to disable Windows native support with "cifs.disableNativeCode=true", then CIFS fails to start at all, causing this stack trace:


13:48:17,422 User:System WARN  [org.alfresco.fileserver] CIFS server native calls disabled, JNI code will not be used
13:48:17,437 User:System ERROR [org.alfresco.fileserver] CIFS server configuration error, 07130001 NetBIOS SMB, TCP/IP SMB or Win32 
NetBIOS must be enabled
org.alfresco.error.AlfrescoRuntimeException: 07130001 NetBIOS SMB, TCP/IP SMB or Win32 NetBIOS must be enabled
        at org.alfresco.filesys.config.ServerConfigurationBean.processCIFSServerConfig(ServerConfigurationBean.java:906)
        at org.alfresco.filesys.AbstractServerConfigurationBean.init(AbstractServerConfigurationBean.java:486)
        …
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

The docs seem to indicate that I would need to add a custom-file-servers-context.xml file to enable netBIOSSMB (Java) however I haven't been able to find an example file from which to copy/paste.

Besides, I think I'd rather have it use WinSock native libraries (since that's what it's designed to do anyway).

What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance for any help, I'm evaluating Alfresco as a replacement for a certain MS product that I would love to stop supporting. :roll:

The problem is 64bit. Alfresco's support for CIFS does not work on 64bit Windows Server 2003.

There is an open bug report available here: https://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/ETHREEOH-2430

NTLM passthru + ldap sync + TCP/IP SMB working config (apart from office 2007 over cifs messing things up -> https://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/ETHREEOH-2320😞

NOTE: Use latest nightly build that includes fixes for 3.2 community!

Hi i have the same problem,
do u know how to configure CIFS that alfresco server is seen in windows domain?
In path /opt/Alfresco/Alfresco-3.2/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/subsystems/fileServers/default/default
in file-servers.properties i set cifs.localname,domain and broadcast and then i configure file-servers-custom.xml .
My cifs server is enable and i can work with it, but i dont know why i can't see server in domain?
What configuration is need to enable this?

Please some advise.
Thanks.

is it possible configure Alfresco 3.2 on Windows to use CIFS and native SMB. I have installed and I can use CIFS
but when I copy a lot of file CIFS comes unstable and it halts for a moment.
