Many requests in Active Directory.

Nicolas,

I have noticed that CmisSync has performed about 15,000 authentications in my Active Directory every 10 minutes, suggesting that for each synchronized document an authentication request is made in AD. Do you have any suggestions on how to solve this problem? Thanks in advance for your time.

Hello Robson,

CmisSync does not call AD directly, rather it calls Alfresco (via CMIS), which itself calls AD. CmisSync creates a session when launched, and then keeps reusing the same session all the time. So unfortunately I don't think we can do much, except do less CMIS requests.

Would you mind asking on the Alfresco forum? I am sure someone would have more ideas about this.

Nicolas,

I did not find anything similar in the forums. We monitor the use of CmisSync and even if you have set up an empty folder at least 4 authenticity requests are made at each configured interval. If there are too many files in the folder, it made more than 10,000 authentication requests at each interval configured in CmisSync. Do not have registry of other people who use Alfresco 5.1 / 5.2 with Active Directory that has the same problem? Do you have any idea where I should start looking for a solution to this problem? The CmisSync software is very good and now I will not be able to use it anymore, as it even knocks down the authentication server. Thank you very much for your attention.

Probably nobody has asked yet on the Alfresco forum because nobody has investigated yet. If you post, hopefully some people will come up with ideas or investigate.

So, please create a new post on the Alfresco forum, and then give us the link to your question. Thank you for caring!
