Manually publishing a service connection point in Active Directory

Installation and Upgrades Administration
Updated April 23, 2020
asked on October 28, 2016

My organization uses a Laserfiche deployment that exists on an Active Directory domain that is separate from ours.  I would like to broadcast the repository to my users but cannot use the LfsCPCfg utility because 1) I do not have direct access to the Laserfiche server, and 2) since it's not joined to our domain it wouldn't work anyway.

Can anyone share the details of the AD object(s) settings to where I could manually add the objects into our AD domain?

The service point configuration utility won't work in this case. When repositories are attached through the Laserfiche Client, their information is saved in the registry. So you could just use a group policy or logon script to add the registry key.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Laserfiche\Client\profile\ipdatabase]
"RepoName"="ServerNameOrIP"

You could also add the following key to turn off scanning for network repository (and speed up the Client's start time if this server is the only one):

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Laserfiche\client\profile\Options]
"thunk"="0"

Just want to confirm.

I have Laserfiche Server in Domain NewCompany.

All Clients and Worstations are in Domain OldCompany.

So their is no way to broadcast the repository to Clients by adjusting the SCP with LfsCPCfg?

Is there any way to set the registry to connect to a repository?  We'd like to turn off the Scan for repositories but also ensure that the appropriate repository is attached without needing each user to attach it.

 

Thanks,

Jen

Repositories are remembered in the registry:

-in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Laserfiche\Client8\Profile\IPDatabase create a string value named after the repository name. Its value is the host name of the LF server.

- In HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Laserfiche\Client8\Profile\Options create a string value named Thunk and give it a value of 0.

You can use group policy or a windows logon script to push this out to all users.

Going back to Williams comment. If I have the LF Server in Domain A and the Windows Clients in Domain B. Is there a way to broadcast the repository to Clients by adjusting the SCP with LfsCPCfg? What if their is a trust between the domains?
