5.10 Enabling CIFS in IPv6 mode

If you want to enable CIFS for Content Services on an IPv6 implementation, you must explicitly add an additional IPv6 address to the machine that hosts LiveCycle. This IPv6 address should be a static IP address that resides in the same subnet as the clients. You need to do the following tasks after you configure LiveCycle using Configuration Manager. Typically, you should pause the Configuration Manager after the EAR file configuration and then edit the EAR file.

For JBoss, after you have edited the EAR file, you need to manually deploy the updated EAR file along with other selected EAR files as described in the Deploying LiveCycle to JBoss section of the Installing and Deploying LiveCycle Server document.

    5.10.1 Edit the contentservices.war file

    1. Navigate to [LiveCycle root]\configurationManager\export directory.

    2. Use a file archive utility such as WinRar to open the adobe-contentservices.ear file.

    3. From the file archive utility window, extract the file contentservices.war\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco\extension\file-servers-custom.xml and open it using a text editor.

    4. Locate the following line and change it by adding ipv6="enabled" :

      <tcpipSMB platforms="linux,solaris,macosx,windows,AIX"/>

      to

      <tcpipSMB platforms="linux,solaris,macosx,windows,AIX" ipv6="enabled"/>

    5. Save and close the file.

    6. From the file archive utility window, extract the file contentservices.war\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco\file-servers.properties and open it using a text editor.

    7. Locate the line cifs.ipv6=disabled and replace it with cifs.ipv6=enabled.

    8. Save and close the file.

    9. Copy the updated file-servers-custom.xml file into the archive under contentservices.war\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco\extension\.

    10. Copy the updated file-servers.properties file into the archive under contentservices.war\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco\.

    11. Save the contentservices.war file.

    Note: After you update the EAR files, you need to manually deploy the updated EAR file along with other selected EAR files as described in the Deploying LiveCycle to JBoss section of the Installing and Deploying LiveCycle server .
