Authentication: Screen name vs email

[Geoff Garcia, modificado hace 13 años.]

I imported users and groups from our AD source then I decided to flip the switch and change from email based authentication to screenname - but it fails - and yes, I've double-checked that the screenname is what it should be.

When I flip the switch back to email address I'm able to authenticate, and then if I switch back to screenname it suddenly works.

So the problem appears to be that first time an AD user logs in must be with email address.
Can anyone else verify this problem? or a solution to it?
Thanks

Thanks Rohit, but that doesn't quite address my issue.
That blog indicates how you could make the adjustment through the properties file, but in 6EE you can just as easily make the switch through the UI.
I've made the switch already, the problem is deeper than that.

2) How to change my login ? If i want to use screen name instead of emailAddress
company.security.auth.type=emailAddress
#company.security.auth.type=screenName
#company.security.auth.type=userId

You haven't given us your ldap settings. Please look at AMOS's comment in the following thread to make sure you've setup the filter correctly.

Thanks Hitoshi, I could be wrong but those issues seem to be slightly different from what I'm experiencing.
What specific LDAP settings are you curious about?

Geof,

I’m experiencing the exact same problematic behavior, although I did not realize the import of users (they are created "on the fly" at the first login, seeking data from LDAP)

Anything new?
