Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-195:
----------------------------------------
The patch requires the name of an attribute that all users have. "uid" is what
it uses now. Online references are not clear on whether or not this will
always work with Active Directory. It especially does not seem to exist for
Windows 2000. Another suggestion is "sAMAccountName", which exists for all
versions of Windows. Replacing "uid" in the patch with "sAMAccountName" may
therefore make it work better.
> Active directory authority doesn't handle unknown user case properly
