Logging CN and DN in debug output like so (names changed...) citserver[68186]: ldap: found uid=someone-mn,ou=Mn,ou=People,dc=servername,dc=net
citserver[68186]: ldap: cn = Someone of Mn citserver[68186]: ldap: display name: <Someone of Mn> , uid = <10073> I can log into my aide fine, with uid, but to log in to LDAP users, I would need to type the full CN, which simply will not work. but this is a step in the right direction. I need users to be able to use uid for their login name, not CN (as some of our CN's are VERY LONG) > Sun Nov 05 2017 10:34:18 PM EST from IGnatius T Foobar @ Uncensored > > Lots of work is going into this LDAP Sync thing.
