After struggling a lot I found that Its very easy to configure CIFS with alfresco in Windows Server.


You only need to follow some basic steps which are available in many please(Steps are at end).But this is not only for the step which you will need to follow for CIFS configuration,you should also know how to debug if your configuration is not proper or something is missing and you dont know what is missing.Please refere below things for same.

netstat -a

This command is manly used for finding out which port is occupied.If you want port with process id you can use below command

netstat -a -o -n


Both of above commands can be used for identifying that the port 445 is used or not.

net view ServerName

above command is identification for server access.It will give you error code so that troubleshott becomes easy.

nbtstat -a SERVER

Testing cifs server name
