Hi,

=C2=A0

We are using ManifoldCF to crawl using window share = repository connector. In the fileserver a folder has been shared to a speci= fic user (e.g say mcfusr). We have configured the window share repository c= onnector with the server details, domain and the user credentials for =E2=80=98mcfusr=E2=80=99. But when we = ran the mcf job, crawling failed with an exception =E2=80=9Cjcifs: possibly trasient exce detected= while getting share security=E2=80=9D.

When I went through the mailing list, I found a rela= ted thread.

As per this, we have added the =E2=80=9Cmcfusr=E2=80= =9D to the administrator group of the fileserver. The crawling job worked s= uccessfully. But with this configuration, we found another issue.=

=C2=A0

In=C2=A0 the fileserver, there is another shared fol= der which is shared with only some other user (say restricted_folder). This= folder is not shared with =E2=80=9Cmcfuser=E2=80=9D explicitly. From outsi= de the fileserver, we are not able to access this restricted folder. But we are able to configure the crawling job with this folder and= mcfuser. The crawling is successful and documents are successfully indexed= .

=C2=A0

Even though MCF reads the ACL of the folder and its = contents, why is it allowed for mcfusr to crawl the documents. We were expe= cting an exception in this scenario. Because of this our client is a little= reluctant to add mcfusr to administrative group.

=C2=A0

Could you please provide us some light on this.

Thanks & Regards,
