MDBC Connector (by Venzia)
The MetaDBConnector Component enables you to link
information from your database (or any other public
source) easily to the content on your Alfresco server,
without any additional development efforts. This
capability adds another level of information enrichment to
your content as well as many alternatives for the
integration of your data.

● This addon provides an authentication subsystem
for Alfresco 3.4.x and 4.x for a custom table of users in
an external database.

Alfresco repository and a custom application.
● You can use it with any type of database (mysql,
postgresql, oracle....)
● You can also use CIFS with this authentication if your
password field is stored in MD4.

you for the client for opening this type of links. Write Libreoffice path
(i.e. /usr/bin/soffice in Linux) and that's all
