I have successfully installed the Bitnami stack for Alfresco on my 7.4 test box; however, I have a problem trying to authenticate a CIFS connection from a Windows PC to the Alfresco repository. Windows can’t see the share, either using \\servername\alfresco or \\servernamea\alfresco. I've tried a Vista and an XP Pro PC with the same results. I am able to connect from my Mac using WebDAV.
Does anyone running this stack have access using CIFS? What did you need to do to make it work?

- Use Bitnami Alfresco Stack in Windows XP
After installing this is working "out of the box"
Browser:
http://127.0.0.1:8080/share/
http://127.0.0.1:8080/alfresco/
Use ftp:
Host: 127.0.0.1
ftp://127.0.0.1/ in Explorer should work
Use WebDav:
Control Panel -> My Network places -> add a network place -> Choose another location -> Internet or network address = http://localhost:8080/alfresco/webdav (I think http://127.0.0.1:8080/alfresco/webdav also works)
then just enter username/password.
ref: http://docs.alfresco.com/4.0/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.alfresco.enterprise.doc%2Ftasks%2Ftuh-maptodrive.html
Use CIFS:
open C:\Alfresco-4.0.d-1\apache-tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco-global.properties
Input:
# Configure the CIFS server
cifs.enabled=true
cifs.serverName=Alfresco
cifs.domain=WORKGROUP
cifs.hostannounce=true
cifs.sessionTimeout=500
cifs.ipv6.enabled=false
cifs.WINS.autoDetectEnabled=true
save file and restart server
just input in explorer
\\alfresco\alfresco
Now you can map a drive to it
worked for me

ahem.. vasco99.. is it something about windows or SME?
-
Sorry I didn't understand your question. I just tried to reply to the question in this post.
-
I meant: your how-to is SME related or Alfresco related (on windows)?
-
It is Alfresco related, in particular Bitnami Alfresco, as requested in the original Post...And that was my problem also, so when I got that working I thought I should share with others....

ok, thank you
