Hi Guys

I'm new to Alfresco and I need some help getting CIFS working. Here is my install info.

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS 64bit
Alfresco Community Edition 3.4d (Installed and working I can get to /share and /alfresco)
Server IP: 203.82.aaa.bbb (the Alfresco server)
Client Host: 192.168.1.115 (the PC trying to add the network share)

Here is what I have in my alfresco-global.properties

### CIFS Configuration  ###
cifs.enabled=true
cifs.serverName=bri-ecm        
cifs.ipv6.enabled=false        
cifs.tcpipSMB.port=445         
cifs.netBIOSSMB.namePort=137
cifs.netBIOSSMB.datagramPort=138
cifs.netBIOSSMB.sessionPort=139
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I've restarted Alfresco (/etc/init.d/alfresco restart) and when I try to make the network drive connection (\\bri-ecm\alfresco) it does not work. Windows cannot access \\bri-ecm\alfresco the network path was not found.

I can telnet to port 445 and 139 ok from the Client Host. (telnet bri-ecm 445)

What am I missing?

Ok silly me. If I had just RTFM then I would have got this.

I did the following and got it working

### CIFS Configuration  ###
cifs.enabled=true
cifs.serverName=bri-ecm       
cifs.ipv6.enabled=false       
cifs.tcpipSMB.port=1445         
cifs.netBIOSSMB.namePort=1137
cifs.netBIOSSMB.datagramPort=1138
cifs.netBIOSSMB.sessionPort=1139‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

then issued these iptable commands

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp –dport 445 -j REDIRECT –to-ports 1445
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp –dport 139 -j REDIRECT –to-ports 1139
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p udp -m udp –dport 137 -j REDIRECT –to-ports 1137
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p udp -m udp –dport 138 -j REDIRECT –to-ports 1138‍‍‍‍‍
