The wiki has detailed instructions for Firefox, and Internet explorer SSO works out of the box, but I cannot for the life of me figure out what I'm supposed to do to make Chrome sso with Alfresco (LDAP sync/Kerberos SSO auth, tested working with other browsers).
Desperate to achieve this because alfresco is painfully slow in any other browser.
I would like to have searched the forums for the answer but I cannot find a forum search function either! (just the google search at the top, a bit pointless as I can go to google myself).
Looking here I should just have to invoke –enable-auth-negotiate-port so it picks up port 8080 in the SPN, but I've also tried setting delegation etc here.
Really trying to avoid learning how Kerberos delegation/auth works from end to end in depth just to work out the settings! Has anyone done this and knows the magic words?
Be sure to use the full dns and the same ones you actually use in the browser. Try authentication to serverort/alfresco first, it is usually easier to get that to work. Then move on to get /share to work. Make sure to specify the delegation command line parameter. Post the parameters you have tried, and especially the ones that works if you get it to work.
I didn't see this answered anywhere else, and we just got Kerberos SSO working through Chrome in our environment so I'll post an update. Basically you need to create/update some registry values (that do not exist by default) to whitelist auth server(s) and kerberos delegation for Chrome. See herefor full documentation on Chrome policy templates and references of all the reg values.: https://support.google.com/chrome/a/answer/187945?hl=en
At a minimum you'll need to set the following registry values to get SSO working in Chrome: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Google\Chrome] "AuthNegotiateDelegateWhitelist"="www.yourAlfServer.com" "AuthSchemes"="basic,digest,ntlm,negotiate" "AuthServerWhitelist"="www.yourAlfServer.com"
As a test stick those values into a .reg file and import them to your local registry. Restart Chrome and SSO should work (in theory anyway). You may need to tweak on some additional registry values for SPN settings or to whitelist plugins for SPP (Sharepoint) functionality but this should get you started. Full documentation is available at the above link.
Be careful, in latest chrome enterprise versions (> 34~), this LocalMCX method seems to no longer be available. It use directly GPO bypassing local registry.
