NTLM-Authentication and Vista

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

Hi everyone,

we are using NTLM-Authentication for the webclient and passthru for CIFS. However, some people who are using special characters in their passwords can login to CIFS, but not into the webclient.

Here's the error:

12:18:42,874 DEBUG [org.alfresco.web.app.servlet.NTLMAuthenticationFilter] New NTLM auth request from 10.129.25.60 (10.129.25.60:49375)

Does anybody have a hint how to enable login to those users?

Thank you in advance!


Edit:

We could exclude the correlation of special chars and our problem. Now it seems, that Windows Vista is the cause - are there any experiences in this regard?

Ok, I have found the solution:

The default-settings of Vista do not allow the use of LM/NTLM, only NTLMv2 which obviously is currently not implemented by Alfresco.

If you adjust the settings according to the description here (don't forget to restart), it will work.


Kind regards
