Hello mates,
I'm having trouble enabling LDAP sync + chaining on alfresco community 2.1.
Actually made it so alfresco recognises it's own users and also LDAP ones, whose get registered in alfresco after their first login (Also had some problems making new users in alfresco but those got solved). But I need to enable sync too, so each X seconds alfresco imports all LDAP users overwriting if necesary.
My files are:
chaining-authentication-context.xml
and ldap-authentication-context.xml
I've tryed some useless mix in ldap-authentication-context.xml resulting in no changes (I though this were going to work but don't know what is failing):
Help would be very much appreciated. Many hours of trying-failing yet and I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong
Don't know if it has any use but here is the log I get at start (I'm getting CIFS error since I enabled chaining):
Thank you very much!

<!– Ldap Syncronisation support –>
<!–
There can be more than one stack of beans that import users or groups. For example, it may be easier
to have a version of ldapPeopleExportSource, and associated beans, for each sub-tree of your ldap directory
from which you want to import users. You could then limit users to be imported from two or more sub tress and ignore
users found else where. The same applies to the import of groups.
The defaults shown below are for OpenLDAP.
–>
<!– Extract user information from LDAP and transform this to XML –>
<bean id="ldapPeopleExportSource" class="org.alfresco.repo.security.authentication.ldap.LDAPPersonExportSource">
<!–
The query to select objects that represent the users to import.
For Open LDAP, using a basic schema, the following is probably what you want:
(objectclass=inetOrgPerson)
For Active Directory:
(objectclass=user)
–>
<property name="personQuery">
<value>(objectclass=inetOrgPerson)</value>
</property>
<!–
The seach base restricts the LDAP query to a sub section of tree on the LDAP server.
–>
<property name="searchBase">
<value>o=kirsten.org</value>
</property>
<!–
The unique identifier for the user.
THIS MUST MATCH WHAT THE USER TYPES IN AT THE LOGIN PROMPT
For simple LDAP authentication this is likely to be "cn" or, less friendly, "distinguishedName"
In OpenLDAP, using other authentication mechanisms "uid", but this depends on how you map
from the id in the LDAP authentication request to search for the inetOrgPerson against which
to authenticate.
In Active Directory this is most likely to be "sAMAccountName"
This property is mandatory and must appear on all users found by the query defined above.
–>
<property name="userIdAttributeName">
<value>uid</value>
</property>
<!– Services –>
<property name="LDAPInitialDirContextFactory">
<ref bean="ldapInitialDirContextFactory"/>
</property>
<property name="personService">
<ref bean="personService"></ref>
</property>
<property name="namespaceService">
<ref bean="namespaceService"/>
</property>
<!–
This property defines a mapping between attributes held on LDAP user objects and
the properties of user objects held in the repository. The key is the QName of an attribute in
the repository, the value is the attribute name from the user/inetOrgPerson/.. object in the
LDAP repository.
–>

</property>
</bean>
<!– Extract group information from LDAP and transform this to XML –>
<bean id="ldapGroupExportSource" class="org.alfresco.repo.security.authentication.ldap.LDAPGroupExportSource">
<!–
The query to select objects that represent the groups to import.
For Open LDAP, using a basic schema, the following is probably what you want:
(objectclass=groupOfNames)
For Active Directory:
(objectclass=group)
–>
<property name="groupQuery">
<value>(objectclass=groupOfNames)</value>
</property>
<!–
The seach base restricts the LDAP query to a sub section of tree on the LDAP server.
–>
<property name="searchBase">
<value>o=kirsten.org</value>
</property>
<!–
The unique identifier for the user. This must match the userIdAttributeName on the ldapPeopleExportSource bean above.
–>
<property name="userIdAttributeName">
<value>uid</value>
</property>
<!–
An attribute that is a unique identifier for each group found.
This is also the name of the group with the current group implementation.
This is mandatory for any groups found.
OpenLDAP: "cn" as it is mandatory on groupOfNames
Active Directory: "cn"
–>
<property name="groupIdAttributeName">
<value>cn</value>
</property>
<!–
The objectClass attribute for group members.
For each member of a group, the distinguished name is given.
The object is looked up by its DN. If the object is of this class it is treated as a group.
–>
<property name="groupType">
<value>groupOfNames</value>
</property>
<!–
The objectClass attribute for person members.
For each member of a group, the distinguished name is given.
The object is looked up by its DN. If the object is of this class it is treated as a person.
–>
<property name="personType">
<value>inetOrgPerson</value>
</property>
<property name="LDAPInitialDirContextFactory">
<ref bean="ldapInitialDirContextFactory"/>
</property>
<property name="namespaceService">

</property>
<!–
The repeating attribute on group objects (found by query or as sub groups)
used to define membership of the group. This is assumed to hold distinguished names of
other groups or users/people; the above types are used to determine this.
OpenLDAP: "member" as it is mandatory on groupOfNames

The main problem was this:

I knew it was something stupid. Anyway, can that CIFS errors be removed?
dinger, what do you mean with login levels?
