LDAP authentication

[jlopez]

Hi everybody, I'm using Liferay 4.2.2 and alfresco 1.4 portlet and I want to configure alfresco to be able to login against the LDAP of my company. The problem is that i don' find the ldap-authentication-context.xml and chaining-authentication-context.xml files. What I need to make LDAP authentication working is just create those files and fill them with the data of this post?where should i put them?

Thank you very much.

hi

if u have alfresco-tomcat bundle then extract it. you will get ldap-authentication-context.xml.sample and chaining-authentication-context.xml.sample in CATALINA_HOME\shared\classes\alfresco\messages\extension. rename that file as .xml , copy that files from their and paste it in extension folder.otherwise you have to create your own

authentication routes, like Active Directory.

add following lines in your file-server.xml

 <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="Filesystem Security">
        <authenticator type="passthru">
              <Server>192.168.1.129</Server>
        </authenticator>
</config>
