Oorzaak

When forest level LDAP authentication is configured, the username of the LDAP user for role mapping should be configured in the format of <username>@<domain> which is exactly the userPincipalName that customer configures for the user in the LDAP server.

 

Oplossing

If the Windows domain controller is the LDAP server, the userPrincipalName can be retried from user's properties using Active Directory Users and Computers.

Note: The Advanced Features in View tab must be enabled to show the Attribute Editor of the user.
