Override enterprise config

marco_altieri

I am trying to override the share configuration that is loaded from enterprise-config.xml

If I am not wrong, it is not possible to do it using the usual extension in share-config-custom.xml. I tried to set the flag to false:

<blockcode>
  <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="Users" replace="true">
      <users>
         <!– minimum length for username and password –>
         <username-min-length>2</username-min-length>
         <password-min-length>3</password-min-length>
         <show-authorization-status>false</show-authorization-status>
      </users>
   </config>
</blockcode>

The problem is that this configuration is already overridden in enterprise-config.xml and cannot be overridden again.

In our environments we do not have any limit on the number of users and we would prefer to hide everything related to authorization.

I don't know about using FTP with Alfresco, but you can map Alfresco to a Windows client
machine (I don't know if you do anything like this for linux clients).

Here are the instructions we use:

Map Alfresco Drive

Set Up

Enable Basic Authentication
Click Start, type regedit in the Start Search box, and then click regedit.exe in the Programs list.
Locate and then click the following registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Parameters
On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD Value.
Type BasicAuthLevel, and then press ENTER.
On the Edit menu, click Modify. In the Value data box, type 2, and then click OK.

Update "Local Policies Security Options"
Control Panel -> Admin Tools -> Local Security Policy
Navigate to Security Settings -> Local Policies -> Security Options
Change "Network Security: LAN Manager authentication Level" to "Send LM and NTLM . use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated"

Restart WebClient Service
Type "local services" in Start menu search box. Hit "Enter".
Scroll down in "Services" window to "WebClient" entry.
Right click on "WebClient" entry.
Change "Startup type" to "Automatic". Click "OK".
Right click "WebClient" entry.
Select "restart".
Close "Services" window.
