How to change default home location

naumanni

We just set up our Alfresco server (3.0) and have it authenticating to MS-AD via LDAP.

Alfresco imported all the domain users and automatically created their home space under company home - not /company home/users home…

Attempted to use the Admin Console to change but cannot select /Company Home/User Homes to move or create new home space…

Any ideas on how to change this?

In the xml config files of your authentication & synchronization with AD, there are beans aiming at configuring user homes (like "homeFolderManager")

Have a look at http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Security_and_Authentication#Creating_home_spaces_-_from_1.4_onwards

This is exactly our problem too …

i've read the recommended WiKi-pages about configuring this -> http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Security_and_Authentication#Creating_home_spaces_-_from_1.4_onwards
but i don't understand, where to implement, the change from "company_home" to "user_homes" for newly created users …

can anybody plz specify an example for this ?

In 3.2 there is a new configuration scheme.

In Alfresco/tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/subsystems/Authentication/ldap-ad/ldap-ad-authentication.properties

you'll find the option for the type of user homes.

# The default home folder provider to use for people created via LDAP import
ldap.synchronization.defaultHomeFolderProvider=userHomesHomeFolderProvider

# The default home folder provider to use for people created via LDAP import
ldap.synchronization.defaultHomeFolderProvider=userHomesHomeFolderProvider

perfect

this works perfect with the "default" user homes …

and what is needed to change, if I would like to have them in a special folder, i created myself?
f.e.:
i create a new folder "intranet" in company home …
and i would like to create the new user homes into this folder (../intranet/userame) …
so maybe like this ? :

ldap.synchronization.defaultHomeFolderProvider=intranetHomeFolderProvider‍

As stated here, there are several options for setting a user home folder

but I'm not sure how to use a custom path. Seems like there is a xml setting to be changed, but I don't know where this could be in recent versions. What I found is very old: http://forums.alfresco.com/en/viewtopic.php?t=4666.
