Hello,

I have downloaded 2.0 comunitiy edition and tried to configure NTLM authentication based on wiki documentation - no luck.

Would appreciate if someone can post the exact steps required to get this to work.

Also would like to import AD users.

Thanks

Ok, got NTLM authentication to work.
Following changes were made:

web.xml
Switched to NTLMAuthenticationFilter
<filter>
  <filter-name>Authentication Filter</filter-name>
  <filter-class>org.alfresco.web.app.servlet.NTLMAuthenticationFilter</filter-class>
</filter>

<filter>
  <filter-name>WebDAV Authentication Filter</filter-name>
  <filter-class>org.alfresco.repo.webdav.auth.NTLMAuthenticationFilter</filter-class>
</filter>

Un-commented the following 3 mappings
<filter-mapping>
  <filter-name>Authentication Filter</filter-name>
  <url-pattern>/navigate/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>

<filter-mapping>
  <filter-name>Authentication Filter</filter-name>
  <url-pattern>/command/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>

<filter-mapping>
  <filter-name>Authentication Filter</filter-name>
  <url-pattern>/template/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>


In \Alfresco\tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco\extension folder
rename ntlm-authentication-context.xml.sample to ntlm-authentication-context.xml

Replace the following with
<property name="useLocalServer">
  <value>true</value>
</property>

with
<property name="domain">
  <value>VALUE OF YOUR DOMAIN</value>
</property>
