XGS Not Reading Attributes from AD

JeffCooper

Hi,

I have active directory configured and it works. Users can log in to the user portal, vpn, and wifi. Yay!

But, the attributes for the display name and email do not pull over from the AD Server.

Example: The user logs in with username

The name appears in the user portal as username@domain.local.

Email in the user record is blank.

For the server configuration, I've only seen "mail" in examples for email. For the Display Name I've tried sAMAccountName, userPrincipalName, and displayName.

Whatever I put the name shows up as "username@domain.local" and the email is blank.

Not sure what I'm missing.

Thanks,

Jeff

    Thank you all for the helpful info!  It was two different issues, both of which were my fault entirely so my apologies for the wild goose chase(s).

    The mail attribute wasn't populating because I was using a test server and neglected to set values for this attribute in my test accounts. Once I put an address in there it worked.

    displayName does work. It looks as though the name at the top of the user portal is stuck as "usename@domain.local" regardless what the Display Name is. When viewing in the list of users, or looking at the user's details on the user page, the full names are there.

    Thanks,

    Jeff
