If you think of it, let me know how the AD integration goes. I haven't tried that yet. Also, this tool from Apache (http://directory.apache.org/studio/) can be very helpful testing LDAP authentication and determining distinguished names.

Update. I turned off LDAP (I couldn’t get it configured correctly anyway) and changed my public url to https instead of http and my client connected successfully. My next step to get LDAP turned on to authenticate to our AD server.

Thanks for the quick response. Here’s the results of the command:

ifolder3-enterprise-3.7.2.9224.1-7.1

@Gary, sorry, I’m not sure what might cause that error. Do you know for sure you have the 3.7.2 version of iFolder server installed? There are some older versions out there. Can you run, “rpm -q ifolder3-enterprise” on your Linux server to double check the version?

Update. I have installed the windows xp client 3.7.2 but get the following error:

Server is old. Cannot connect to the server

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I can access the admin & user web interfaces but can’t find the Windows XP client to install. I am new to the Linux world so it’s very possible I missed a step some where. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Great tutorial.
But one thing though, to avoid troubles with the client not connecting, you need to enable SSL in simias-server-setup by choosing either BOTH or SSL, don’t use NONSSL.
Also, don’t use default data folder location, specify another one and let ifolder create it for you to enable proper permissions.

Hi !
>>Also, can you access ifolder through the web interface and login okay?http://yourip/ifolder or http://yourip/admin ?
Yes, this part works. local on server and from all machines in our network.
Only the client dosn´t work

First, make sure you’ve rebooted your windows desktop before connecting to the ifolder server. I know that’s annoying but the client software won’t run until after a reboot. Also, can you access ifolder through the web interface and login okay? http://yourip/ifolder or http://yourip/admin ?
