Hi,
When people use Active Directory Users & Computers, the CN part of a users DN contains the Common Name, typically 'firstname lastname' for example: cn=john smith, ou=marketing,dc=reskit,dc=com
If all users are in a single OU, this will work if there is only 1 john smith.
When using FIM to provision user to a single OU, we are thinking of using the 'samaccountname' in the DN to ensure uniquness as follows: cn=jsmith, ou=marketing,dc=reskit,dc=com
My question is: for the existing AD users, can we just go ahead and change their existing CN='firstname lastname' to CN='samaccountName'? We'd like to have the DN naming convention the same for all users.
Thanks,
SK
