Enterprise vs. Community

According to the download page, there is supposedly no difference between the community version of Alfresco and the enterprise version in terms of functionality.

However, I'm noticing comments in the config files that read "Enterprise version only".

The reason I'm asking is that I'm trying to get NTLM passthrough to work, but it appears to be unimplemented, and I noticed the above mentioned comments in the NTLM portions of web.xml. I don't want to waste any more time trying to make it work if it's not possible.

The comments are out-of-date - all functionality including NTLM is available in the Community version.

Thanks,

FYI, I have raised a bug for this so that in the next release these comments will be removed to avoid any confusion.

I tried to configure the NTLM SSO both on Community and Enterprise versions (v2.0). On the Community version the Not implemented runtime exception was trown, while the Enterprise version worked fine.

That hasn't been the case since Alfresco 1.1. There may have been bugs in the Community version that were fixed in the Enterprise version however - we tend to focus testing on the more "enterprise" features such as NTLM/LDAP after the Community version is released.

Don't missundertand me. I'm very satisfied with the features and abilities of Alfresco. But I can't understand (and that was the originally raised issue too) why do you say: "Alfresco Community Network contains all of the functionality present in Alfresco Enterprise Network under an Open Source license but is unsupported." (http://www.alfresco.com/products/ecm/enttrial/), when it's not the true.
Why don't simply say "almost all of the functionality" (or something like that)?
Everybody who wants to try out the possibilities of the product now downloads the Community Network because according to the description there are no differences in the functionality. If the fact that there are differences in the functionality of the Community Network and the Enterprise Network were known, the majority would examine the Trial version of the Enterprise Network at the very start.

Maybe it's only my opinion.

Hi,

Have you tried getting one of the community nightly builds, or checking out the code to see if that resolves your problem?

Also, if you do this you'll find new and exciting functionality that isn't yet in the Enterprise version!

Our formal releases of Community and Enterprise contain exactly the same functionality, the only difference is that we spend more time bug fixing the version that people are paying support for.
(Note, these bug fixes are then rolled into the community code and will be present if you use either of the two methods mentioned above).

So, the Community version contains the same, if not more, functionality than the Enterprise version but hasn't been certified and isn't supported.
If you have any issues you have to rely on the forums and hope that someone in the community can help, rather than working with Alfresco Support.

Hi again!

I must admit I was wrong

ops:, but I was misslead. Because I didn't notice the difference between some xml files (like authenticationComponentImpl vs. authenticationComponent in tomcat\webapps\alfresco\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco\authentication-services-context.xml) so the same settings worked different in the two versions (alfresco-community-tomcat-2.0.0 and alfresco-enterprise-tomcat-2.0.0).

So I tried to synchronize the config files to some degre e, and the situation has changed. Now I'm stucked again, and the problem is the same as described in topic Which Authentication Method. But this problem occured only with the Community Network, the Entrprise Network works fine.

That's it. I'll keep on trying.
