ver 4.0.d:disabled NTLM/ SSO/CIFS but invite has no user/pwd

[rlyders]

I am simply trying to setup a test site to show the managers how Alfresco works. i do not want to setup NTLM, SSO, CIFS, AD, etc. I just want to allow user to login with a username and password. Unfortunately, the "invite" emails never include the user's username and password.

I've disabled every authentication setting I can find, yet the invitation email still shows no user name and no password to the invited user. Based on this link: http://andoylang.wordpress.com/2010/07/20/alfresco-with-cifs/ I set all of the following to false:

————————–
————————–
nano /opt/alfresco-4.0.d/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco-global.properties

ntlm.authentication.sso.enabled=false
ntlm.authentication.authenticateCIFS=false
alfresco.authentication.authenticateCIFS=false
alfresco.authentication.allowGuestLogin=false
passthru.authentication.sso.enabled=false
passthru.authentication.authenticateCIFS=false
ldap.authentication.active=false
ldap.synchronization.active=false
ntlm.authentication.sso.enables=false
ntlm.authentication.mapUnknownUserToGuest=false
passthru.authentication.authenticateFTP=false
passthru.authentication.guestAccess=false
————————–
————————–

… I understand that that user should get a username and password shown in their invitation email, but the invitation emails never include any username or password.

I then went through and updated all of the other places where these settings exist and set everything to 'false':

no errors seen when I invite the user or when the user clicks on the URL in the invite email:
tail -f /opt/alfresco-4.0.d/alfresco.log
tail -f /opt/alfresco-4.0.d/tomcat/logs/catalina.out

Any help would be appreciated.

Whether authentication is enabled or not is irrelevant.

If your authentication chain allows users to authenticate against an external system then there is no need to send the user name and password,  and to do so would be a major security flaw.    Only if the account is being generated on alfresco for the first time is a username and password sent (otherwise how could the user know what their user name and alfresco specific password is.)
