| Most settings and configurations can be managed outside of the ''alfresco.war'' deployment. Others must be done within that folder. This of course results in a complex update procedure because instead of simply replace the ''alfresco.war'' by a new version you have to redo all these steps inside the ''alfresco.war'' folder to continue with the same environment as prior the update. | Most settings and configurations can be managed outside of the ''alfresco.war'' deployment.

| + | |||
| + | ==== Setup ==== | ||
| + | - Copy from extension pack ''ldap-synchronisation-context.xml'' and\\ ''ldap-synchronisation.properties'' to ''<extension>'' | ||
| + | - Add in the xml a bean ''ldapInitialDirContextFactory'' and relating settings for this bean (get it from ''ldap-authentication-context.xml'' and ''ldap-authentication.properties'') instead of the existing alias. | ||
| + | - Rename this bean to ''ldapSyncInitialDirContextFactory''\\ | ||
| + | - Set the default properties relating to AD and add properties like in Table 1 | ||
| + | - In ''<extension>/custom-authority-service-context.xml'' add and check admin user names. They HAVE TO BE case sensitiv even if the Alfresco setting for user names is "not case sensitiv". | ||
| + | |||
| + | ^ Alfresco user property ^ AD property name ^ | ||
| + | | company | organizationalId | | ||
| + | | department | organization | | ||
| + | | description | jobtitle | | ||
| + | <sub>Table 1 - property relation Alfresco AD:</sub> | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Corrected and customized home folder creation ===== | ||
| + | Alfresco creates the homefolder for users imported via LDAP automatically. Unfortunately these homefolders are located in the ''Company Home''. This task address that problem and place the homefolders into ''User Homes''. Additionally the inner structure of such a homefolder will be taken out of a template. | ||
| + | |||
| + | - In ''<extension>/ldap-synchronisation.properties'' set\\ ''ldap.synchronisation.defaultHomeFolderProvider=userHomesHomeFolderProvider'' | ||
| + | - Copy ''authentication-services-context.xml'' to\\ ''<extension>/custom-authentication-services-context.xml'' | ||
| + | - In this file in the bean description for ''userHomesHomeFolderProvider'' add\\ property ''templatePath''. Point it to a folder which contains the user home template for example: <value>/${spaces.company_home.childname}/${spaces.dictionary.childname}/${spaces.templates.childname}/cm:Homefolder</value> | ||
| + | - Take care! In ''<extension>ldap-synchronisation-context.xml'' the property\\ ''clearAllChildren'' of ''ldapPeopleImport'' MUST NOT set to true. ((I had activated this setting during the testphase to get new homefolders automatically during each LDAP lookup. But login and work inside the homefolder as a LDAP sync'd user results in tons of error messages.)) | ||
